She had even assaulted them physically. “The old couple was staying with the employed son and daughter-in-law with a hope to get better treatment and maintenance as both son and daughter-in-law are employed,” said Binjharpur police station inspector-incharge Suchitra Birjya Das.
Das said as the son of the octogenarian couple works outside, they live with the daughter-in-law alone. “Taking advantage of the absence of the son, the daughter-in-law used to misbehave with the octogenarian couple,” he said adding the accused used to thrash the old couple over petty issues.
“It is too much. We cannot tolerate her oppression any more, the complaint told police adding they want their daughter-in-law be punished as per law.
