| A mother of two children was recently thrown out of her home because her husband and his family wanted a son.
''I am sitting outside. Please let me come in,'' said Ramila Tated.
Ramila Tated was sitting outside her own home, pleading to be let inside, after she was thrown out along with her two daughters. She had to spend Saturday night on the steps outside her house.
Ramila's husband Shailesh and his family, who own a jewellery store, threw her out because they wanted male children.
So much so that after the first girl was born Ramila was forced to go through abortions twice, as the illegally done ultrasound report showed she was expecting girls.
''My husband's family came over once after I had a minor fight with my husband. They tortured hours. My father-in-law beat me up and even set me on fire but I managed to escape,'' said Ramila Tated.
But when on February 11 she delivered another baby girl, her husband left the house and even threatened divorce.
On Saturday night several people walked into Ramila's house and showed her out, forcing her to seek help from the police.
''She was being tortured physically and mentally since her marriage in 2004. There is also a case of harassment due to dowry demands,'' said D P Jhende, Police Inspector.
The Dahisar Police has also registered a case of dowry harassment after Ramila's parents were told to give 5 lakh rupees for bringing up the first daughter.
While Ramila's husband and brother-in-law Rajesh have been arrested, the police is also looking for the two doctors from KK Hospital and Ameen Hospital, who revealed the sex of the child before birth.
