Shadab wanted to marry the girl but she was engaged to someone else. The wedding was fixed in the first week of February. Shadab hatched a conspiracy to break her engagement and sent those obscene videos to the girl’s fiance who shared it with her in-laws to be.

He escaped to Delhi after girl’s family named him in the FIR. He was arrested from Delhi on Sunday and has been sent to jail.
BJP leaders Vineet Sharda and Sunil Bharala have described it a case of ‘love jihad’ and demanded an ex gratia of Rs. 5 lakh to the family. The incident led to a communal tension in the town.
