Kundapur, May 7: A 25-year-old woman from Gopady has lodged a complaint against her husband and five of his family members, alleging physical and mental harassment over dowry demands and threats to her life.

According to the complaint, Tasma had married Junaid, a resident of Avinahalli in Sagar taluk, in 2022. During the marriage, her family had reportedly given Rs 2 lac in cash and 50 sovereigns of gold.

Based on the complaint, a case has been registered against six persons at the Kundapur Town police station, and further investigation is underway.
