Gandhinagar: A woman in Gujarat’s Mehasana had her husband arrested frequently and arranged for his release afterwards, reports say.

As he spent five months in jail, Sonu secured his release and arranged for his bail.
They lived separately, but somehow found themselves together in ‘web of fight, separation and reconciliation’.
Fight kept breaking out even as they came back to live together, according to the report.
Premchand was arrested every year from 2016 to 2018 as Sonu complained and each time she secured his release.
When he was jailed in 2019 and 2020 over not paying alimony, she rescued him each time.

Premchand went to live with his mother in Patan and lodged a complaint, accusing Sonu and their son of harming him.
