LUCKNOW: The rumours of an alleged interfaith marriage in Kushinagar district led police to intervene and take the couple away to a police station on Tuesday. However, after allegedly keeping the couple overnight at the police station, the cops let them go following the arrival of girl’s kin who confirmed that she was a Muslim by birth and that no conversion had taken place.
As per the sources, while the groom Haider Ali, 39, alleged torture by the cops at Kasya police station in Kushinagar, the district police authorities denied the accusations saying that the couple was taken away after receiving a phone call that an inter-faith marriage was taking place wherein a Hindu woman had converted to Islam for the wedding.
