Bantwal, Jan 3: A young couple belonging to different religions who eloped and got married recently, presented themselves in Vittal police station on Monday January 3. The girl said that she does not want to return to her mother’s house, and instead wants to lead a married life with her husband.
Renita D’Souza (19), resident of Saletthoor village went missing on December 26. She had told her parents that she had tooth pain and was going to a dentist clinic in Thokkottu. But she eloped with Ashraf, whom she loved, the couple registered their marriage.
When the girl came to the police station in Vittal, the parents of the girl asked her to return home. But she refused, and she said she does not want to leave Ashraf and go anywhere. At this point of time there was heated debate between the two parties. Police intervened and brought the situation under control. Even though Ashraf told Renita to go to her mother’s place at least for a day, she did not heed to his request.
Disappointed, the family of the girl told her not to have any relation with them again and went home.
