Today morning the marriage party reached the venue. When the ceremonies were about to start, the groom’s parents once again made a demand for Rs 50 lakh. They were told that the girl’s father being a manager in Punjab and Sind Bank was unable to arrange the sum. However, they insisted on their demand.
“I informed my daughter who was getting ready for the function about the demand. She told me to put off the marriage and wanted that action should be taken against such greedy people,” he said sobbing.
The guests thrashed the groom and his parents. The timely intervention of the police saved the situation.
The NRI groom and his parents were taken to the Sadar police station where a case under the Dowry Act was registered against them.
The groom and his parents refused to comment on the issue. They tried to stop lensmen trying to take their photos. All guests from the groom’s family fled the venue. The marriage party had arrived at Patiala from Doraha in Ludhiana.
At the venue while there was a pall of gloom among the family members of Amitoz, the guests were busy enjoying eatables despite the unfortunate development.
Amitoz refused the come before mediapersons. Her father said she was too shocked to give any statements.
