After marriage, Smalin discovered her husband’s affair with his mother

CHENNAI: Smalin Jenita (23), a seven-month pregnant girl from Tiruchi in Tamil Nadu, is fighting brain injury and multiple fractures in a Chennai hospital after being allegedly pushed out of a moving car in the US.

The reason, according to the girl’s father Sebastian Antonysamy, Jenita discovered an incestuous relationship between her husband Christy Danius and his mother Chellam, even as she was being harassed for dowry.

Antonysamy said the incident happened in South Carolina on July 31, but his family was informed about Jenita’s critical condition much later, that too by a friend in Lake Forest Hospital where Jenita was lying in a coma.

The father, who went to the US and brought Janita to Chennai by an air ambulance on Sunday, said he came to know of the details only ten days ago, when Janita started speaking. “Danius said it was a car accident. Only recently my daughter started talking and she told me that she was pushed out of the car,” Sebastian said, adding that her daughter had written a letter to him about the incestuous relationship in April 2007.

“In the letter describing the peculiar relationship between Danius and his mother, Jenita said she could be harmed by Danius, his mother and sister.

Filing a case there would need my daughter’s presence. Since that might put her at risk, I have brought her to India. I will be meeting the TN DGP to see what legal action I can initiate here,” Antonysamy said.

After the families met through an advertisement, Danius’s family from Nagercoil demanded Rs1 lakh, to which the girl’s parents  agreed. Daniel reportedly demanded Rs5 lakh again, which the family could not pay.

After the marriage, Jenita discontinued her studies and left for the US.

Sources in Dr Mehta’s Hospital, Chennai, said Jenita is getting treated. “She is stable, but incoherent in her speech. The foetus is normal,” a source said. When DNA contacted him, Christy Danius denied the charges.

“It was a car accident. I have the accident report issued by the US authority concerned and has forwarded it to the police department.

What was Sebastian doing for the last two months in the US? He could have made the allegations to the magistrate when he signed the change of guardianship (of Jenita) in the US,” Danius said.
