It’s been 12 years since I got married. He always locked me up in the house and tortured me. Nobody in the area would question him… My children go to school. But they remain outside until my husband comes back from work. I would give them food through the window,” the woman told India Today.
A senior police officer, meanwhile, said that the woman was only confined inside her home for the past two to three weeks.
