Five years later, man files FIR against wife for quiet abortion

VIJAY UPADHYAY
Agra. For a woman, her first child is a gift from God and a mother would do everything to protect and nurture the child in her womb. But when this Agra woman aborted her child to pursue her career, little did she know her husband would file an FIR against her.

Enraged by the step taken by his wife Neelam (name changed), Sanjeev (name changed) filed an FIR against her for criminal conspiracy with her parents and terminating pregnancy.

Speaking to the Pioneer, inspector in-charge of Sadar police station Dileep Mittal said that Sanjeev, a resident of Mumbai, had married Neelam from Agra six years ago. At that time, Neelam had just been appointed as guest relations officer at a five-star hotel. After marriage, Neelam moved to Mumbai for sometime and it was then that she learnt that she was expecting.

Sanjeev complained that soon after Neelam knew of her pregnancy, she created a ruckus at his Mumbai house and demanded that she be sent back to her parent's place and be allowed to pursue her career. However, he did not allow her to go in this state.

In his FIR, Sanjeev alleged that soon after her first check-up in Mumbai, Neelam had begun thinking of aborting the baby so that she could pursue her career.

A few weeks later, she aborted her child in Mumbai without Sanjeev's consent. She did this after consulting her parents and her brother. When Sanjeev questioned her, Neelam left Mumbai and went off to Agra. She also filed an FIR against him for dowry harassment.

Today, almost five years after the incident, Sanjeev has filed an FIR against Neelam and her family and charged her for criminal conspiracy and murdering his child.

According to Mittal, the police was still investigating the case as there were many missing links to it.
