Julie was suspicious that Hetal and her husband Ramesh were having an affair. On Sunday morning, she came to Hetal’s place in Bharatpara street number 2, and made allegations. She was accompanied by her husband Ramesh Mohan and her father Ramesh Khoda. She alleged that she was forced by the trio to prove herself innocent.

Ramesh Mohan, Hetal and Julie dipped their hands into boiling oil. Ramesh and Julie also sustained severe burn injuries but they said that they were correct so they need not to take any treatment whereas Hetal was admitted in a hospital. She registered a police complaint on Monday afternoon. Sources at Surendranagar said that all the three victims went underground because of the social stigma related to this issue.
