UP Man Illegally Gives Wife 'Triple Talaq' Over Support for Police in Sambhal Violence

The woman filed a police complaint after her husband divorced her using the banned practice following her praise of police actions in Sambhal.

A Moradabad woman, Nida, alleges her husband gave her 'triple talaq' after she praised police handling of recent Sambhal violence.
The banned practice of 'triple talaq' was declared unconstitutional by India's Supreme Court in 2017 and criminalized in 2019.
The couple argued after Nida watched a video about the violence in Sambhal, which erupted during a court-ordered mosque survey, killing four people and injuring many, including police.
Nida claims her husband called her an infidel and divorced her verbally after she expressed support for the police's actions in controlling the unrest.
Police have received Nida's complaint and are investigating the incident, which also includes allegations of harassment by her husband and in-laws.
