He further said that on several occasions her in-laws and husband used to beat his daughter brutally over petty issues.
"Sonam's leg was also fractured in an accident since then her husband other family members boycotted her and neither did they cooperate financially. In September 2019 Shikhar left the house and started living in the AIIMS hostel," the deceased father told the police.
