The respondent is a quarrelsome lady. She always used to quarrel with his blind father, mother and younger sister without any reasonable cause and she was saying to kill them by administering poison.

She retained his ATM Card, used to withdraw money against his permission and used to give to her parents. When he came to know about this fact and protested, she called her father. Her father and brother came to his house and they threatened to kill him and took the respondent with them after lodging a written complaint against him by the respondent in Mahila P.S., Bermo and taking away jewelleries worth Rs.3,00,000/- and cash amounting Rs.40,000/-.
