NRI, kin booked for duping wife
WSN Network 

FARIDKOT: A Canada-based Indian family was booked by police on the charge of duping a local girl by concealing  her husband's previous marriage. A case under Sections 406, 498A and 120B of the IPC has been  registered against groom Gurwinder Singh, father Sadhu Singh, mother Gurcharn Kaur, brother Manjit Singh and mediator Piara Singh, all  hailing from Moga and now settled in Canada.

In her complaint, Kanwarjit Kaur said she married her daughter Ravnit Kaur to Gurvinder, who was said to be a "famous" doctor in Canada. "We gave Rs 21 lakh as dowry to Gurvinder's family at the time of the marriage," she said. However, on arriving in Canada, Ravnit, a computer engineer, found that her husband was already married and his other wife was staying with him. Fed up with the harassment by her husband and his parents, Ravnit returned to India and narrated her tale of woes to her widowed  mother. During an inquiry ,DSP Seva Singh found that the  accused were guilty of conspiracy and criminal breach of trust.
