A woman residing in Ahmedabad lodged a police complaint against her estranged husband, alleging that he threatened her to set ablaze over a phone call.
The complainant, identified as Mayaben, wife of Sudhirdan Awaddan Khande-Gadhvi, resides at Sukan Gold near Osia Mall in Vande Mataram, Gota. In her statement, she reported that on January 18, 2025, around 12.39 pm, she received a threatening call from an unknown number. The caller, whom she recognised as her husband, allegedly threatened to set her ablaze by pouring petrol on her.
Mayaben stated that she married Sudhirdan in 2005 and initially lived with him in their marital home in Ranod village, Shankeshwar, Patan district. However, she alleged that she suffered physical and mental abuse at his hands, which led her to file a complaint against him at Sankeshwar Police Station on April 18, 2024.
Following this, she began living separately with her children – a 19-year-old daughter, Avniba, and a 16-year-old son, Vedant – at her current residence in Ahmedabad.
Citing fear for her safety, Mayaben reported the threat to the Sola High Court Police Station, urging legal action against her husband. She further mentioned that she delayed filing the complaint as her son was preparing for his exams and she did not want to disturb him.
The Sola Police have registered a complaint and have registered a case and have started an investigation.
Authorities are now probing the matter and verifying the origin of the threatening call. Meanwhile, police have assured Mayaben of protection as the investigation unfolds.
