Woman alleges husband misrepresented identity, subjected her to abuse in Assam's Morigaon

A woman was rescued by members of the All Tiwa Students' Union in Assam's Morigaon district following allegations that she had been subjected to physical and mental abuse by a man with whom she had been living for nearly six years.

According to the allegations, the woman had left home with a man identified as Abdul Hasim around six years ago after he allegedly introduced himself as a Hindu. She later came to know his actual identity but continued living with him due to the circumstances, the account stated.

The woman alleged that Hasim subsequently began subjecting her to physical and mental harassment. Unable to endure the alleged abuse, she approached office-bearers of the All Tiwa Students' Union and narrated her ordeal.

Following the complaint, members of the organisation intervened and rescued the woman from the man's residence. They also locked the house, according to the information provided.

The woman further claimed that Hasim had been married previously.

Further details about the incident, including whether a police complaint has been filed or any action has been initiated by the authorities, were not available in the account.
