A man, who had taken a loan from a private player for his daughter's marriage, was allegedly beaten up by the money lender at Shahpur town here today, police said.
The accused also sexually harassed the victim's wife when she intervened to save her husband from the blows.
A case was registered against Rantej Singh under relevant sections of IPC following a complaint by the victim Sanjay Kashyap, SHO P B Singh said.

The couple also alleged that the accused took away Rs 30,000 from them, they added.
