(DW) – Neelam Rani was married to Gaurav Kumar for only 45 days before he left for Germany without her, but taking all of her cash and jewelry with him. Eight years after being abandoned by her husband, Neelam now lives with her elderly father and younger sister in the city of Gurdaspur in Punjab.
Neelam recalled her husband’s promise to immigrate to Germany together as a married couple — but shortly after the wedding, her life suddenly went downhill. The 37-year-old Indian told DW that her husband used to physically assault her, and blame the abuse on not getting “enough dowry.”
