In a shocking incident, a woman was brutally beaten and dragged by her husband outside her house for having words with a rival family member. The incident took place in Gujarat's Dahod district; it came to light after the bystanders recorded the video of the brutal assault and uploaded it on social media. Currently, the police officials are investigating the matter, and the accused have been arrested. As per the reports, the police contacted the victim after they saw the video. Later, it was revealed that the name of the victim was Maki Makhla Valvai, and her husband thrashed her for merely speaking with a lady who belonged to a rival family.

As per the reports, the woman was alone on Monday night and was having dinner when relatives Dita Valvai and Pankaj Valvai came to talk to her. When the victim's husband came to know about the incident, he came along with his other two relatives and brutally assaulted the victim outside the house. The victim's husband not only publicly thrashed her, but he also dragged the woman across the road and threw her in front of the Bhabhor family's house. The accused and the Bhabhor family had a long property dispute, and the victim allegedly interacted with the members of the Bhjabhor family despite having a bitter rivalry.

The woman had suffered injuries and was rushed home before going to the hospital. The woman was later taken to the police station by her son, Suresh Valvai. After the incident was reported to the police, the Superintendent of Police (SP) Hitesg Joysar confirmed that the woman had no severe injuries. However, the police arrested the husband and his relatives for assaulting the lady.
