Eluru Man Tied to Pole After Wedding: Brutal Vengeance Unfolds
1 Jan
Summary
- Couple married despite eight-year relationship and family opposition.
- Groom assaulted and tied to pole by bride's relatives post-wedding.
- Police registered cases of kidnapping and assault, protecting the couple.
A young man in Eluru, Andhra Pradesh, was subjected to severe vigilante violence after marrying his long-term partner against her family's wishes. The couple, Sai Chand and Sai Durga, had been together for eight years, but Sai Durga's family allegedly disapproved of the union, possibly due to Sai Chand being unemployed while Sai Durga worked with the postal department.
The couple proceeded with their marriage a few days ago, having sought police protection. Despite the ceremony, Sai Durga's family reportedly retaliated. A viral video depicts Sai Chand being dragged by his hair, tied to an electricity pole, and physically assaulted by relatives of Sai Durga.
Authorities have launched a full investigation into the incident, registering cases of kidnapping and assault. The police are committed to ensuring the safety of the newly married couple and have emphasized that personal grievances cannot be settled by bypassing the legal system.
