A 24-year-old woman was allegedly killed by her husband and in-laws over dowry here.
Meenu was found hanging from the ceiling of her room yesterday following which her father Tejram filed a police complaint against her husband and in-laws, police said today.
The deceased got married to Dheeraj, a resident of Uncha village in Faridabad, on February 22, 2015.
In the complaint, Tejram has alleged that Dheeraj along with his parents used to harass Meenu over dowry and claimed that he had paid them Rs 50,000 about two months back but they had on September 30 made another demand of Rs one lakh.
He claimed that Meenu had told him that she had been threatened of being killed if the amount was not paid.
A case has been registered against Dheeraj and his parents under Section 304B (dowry death) and 34 of the IPC (acts done by several persons in furtherance of common intention) at Faridabad's Ballabgarh police station.
Dheeraj has been arrested, ASI Satish Kumar said, adding that further probe is on.
