After the family won the dispute in the court, the house was given to her brothers-in-law, but not Monica. “As a result, her parents instigated her which resulted in minor rifts in the house and she was then moved to the
annexe. I then issued a public notice debarring Vikas and Monica from my property which depressed her,” said Monica’s father-in-law GP Goyal while recording his statements. The case has now been adjourned to November 14. Monica’s in-laws stated that they had never asked for dowry. They said they found her hanging in her room and took her to hospital. Monica
