No Indian woman can “share her husband” with anyone else and stay sane in such a case, the Allahabad High Court has observed, dismissing an appeal for discharge of a polygamous man, accused of abetting suicide by his “second” wife.
Justice Rahul Chaturvedi made the observation while dismissing a Varanasi resident's appeal challenging the order of an additional sessions judge there, rejecting his plea to discharge him in the abetment of suicide case.
“No Indian woman can share her husband at any cost. They are literally possessive about their husbands,” Justice Chaturvedi observed, dismissing the accused plea.
“It would be the biggest jolt for any married woman that her husband is being shared by some other lady or he is going to marry some other lady. In such an awkward situation, it would be impossible to expect any sanity from them,” the judge said.
