In her complaint, Baby, a resident of Gopal Nagar in Haibowal, told the police that she married Sunny in April. Since then, he had been beating her up frequently.

On September 11, while cleaning the house, she found a photograph of Sunny’s marriage with another woman named Sonia. When she confronted him, he beat her up again.

Baby said thereafter, she went to her parents’ house and approached the Haibowal police station.

Investigating officer Narinder Singh said Sunny had been booked under Sections 420 (cheating), 494 (marrying again during lifetime of husband or wife) and 323 (voluntarily causing hurt) of the Indian Penal Code.
