The apprehensions of the father are quite evident in the letter in which he further requests for a secure telephone number in case of an emergency.
"He has locked me up, I need you to call the police, Plz come if you can, I'm locked up," these are some of the messages that Anissia Batra had sent to her friend on WhatsApp before her death. Anissia's father, a retired major general had, in his complaint to the police on June 27, 2018, had stated that he was filing the report as a precautionary measure against any harm which may come from his daughter's husband or her in-laws to her safety.
"He is a violent man. Ever since their marriage, he has been using physical force and beating her up. We have been keeping the matter quiet to keep the marriage alive but now his violence is becoming more frequent and has come to a stage where the husband and in-laws asked her to vacate her husband's house (N-116, Panchsheel Park)," said Rt Major General RS Batra, in his complaint.
The apprehensions of the father are quite evident in the letter in which he further requests for a secure telephone number in case of an emergency. "I also fear for her safety as her life could be in danger. Also, they may physically harm my daughter and show it as an accident or suicide," said the complaint.
Ishkaran Singh Bhandari, the lawyer representing Batras, said that these messages reveal how the victim was locked up and how her husband controlled her phone, e-mail and would also lock her up.
The last message was sent around 4.12 pm on Friday that read:"I am going to kill myself today because Mayank has driven me to it. He finally let me out but I can't repair what he has done."
The 39-year-old flight attendant allegedly jumped to death from the terrace of her residence on Friday.
As per the post-mortem report, the injuries on her body were due to a fall, sources stated. The viscera report which will give more clarity is awaited.
