Ghaziabad, May 14: The wife of a serving Police Inspector in Ghaziabad has accused him of torture and harassment for dowry, police said on Monday.
The accused police officer is posted as the Station House Officer (SHO) of Indirapuram Police Station in the city.
In a complaint to Ghaziabad Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Vaibhav Krishna, she stated that she was married to Sachin Malik, the accused in March 2004. But due to greed for dowry, later the police officer deserted her.
A girl child was born out of the wedlock, and she is 10 years old now.
At present, the woman is residing in Sadar Bazar of Meerut Cantt area. The officer used to send goons to her house, who would terrorize her parents and pressurize her to file a divorce case, she said in the complaint.
But being a spiritual woman believing in Hindu rituals, she wrote, she wanted to live with her husband. She also wants to live her husband because her daughter has been deprived of the love and affection of her father.
In the letter, she requested the SSP to call Malik to the office and seek his explanation and convince him to rejoin them to make the family complete again.
"I will take up the matter when the SSP office reaches out to us in connection with the complaint. Till then, we won't interfere in SHO's personal matter," said Indirapuram Circle Officer Dharmendra Chauhan.
On his part, SHO Malik said: "She has been harassing me for the last 14 years. I have tried to settle the dispute on several occasions but she is adamant to ruin mine life."

K’taka cabinet approves cricket matches at M. Chinnaswamy stadium: Reports
Belagavi: The state cabinet under the Chairmanship of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah has reportedly given its nod to permit cricket matches at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, subject to certain conditions.
The decision is learnt to have been taken after a meeting held at the Suvarna Vidhana Soudha here on Thursday.
Reports indicate that Home Minister Dr G. Parameshwara has been directed to formulate rules along with a referendum to hold a cricket match at the Chinnaswamy Stadium.
The cabinet’s approval comes subject to conditions, considering the report of Justice D’Cunha, which was prepared after the stampede.
The June 4 stampede during the celebrations for RCB’s maiden IPL title killed 11 people, which raised serious questions over the stadium's capability to host large-scale events.
Will RCB be playing at their home ground next year?
Stating that the “state had learned from the tragedy,” Karnataka Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar on Monday, December 08, dismissed the talks about shifting Royal Challengers Bengaluru’s home games out of the city.
He also said that the Chinnaswamy Stadium is the “pride of Bengaluru and Karnataka” and vowed that IPL fixtures will continue to be played there.
On Wednesday, Shivakumar met the newly elected KSCA president Venkatesh Prasad at the Circuit House in Belagavi and reiterated that cricket matches, including IPL fixtures, will not be shifted out of Bengaluru.
“We have no intention of stopping matches at Chinnaswamy Stadium, but crowd control measures and the Michael D. Cunha committee’s recommendations will be implemented in phases,” he told reporters.
Shivakumar said the government is committed to promoting cricket and supporting fans while safeguarding the state’s reputation, adding that Prasad had sought the government’s cooperation and agreed to work jointly on the issue.
