HER FIR AGAINST ATUL

When I told my parents about the harassment and dowry, my parents explained to me that everything will be fine, listen and keep living with it. But no improvement of any kind came in my husband and in-laws,"
"My husband started to beat me up after drinking alcohol and started treating the husband-wife relationship with me like a beast. He used to transfer my entire salary from my account to his account by threatening me," she stated so in the FIR.
ATUL’S REPLY TO FIR IN SUCIDE NOTE
Subhash, in his suicide note stated rebutted the Rs 10 lakh dowry demand.
"We demanded Rs 10 lakh dowry is the most laughable allegation. My wife has claimed that I had a CTC (gross salary)of Rs 40 lakhs when she left the house. My wife also claimed that I have a CTC of Rs 80 Lakhs later in the case. Why would a man making Rs 40 or 80 lakh would ever demand Rs 10 lakhs and leave his wife and child (sic)."
On the allegation of wife beating his wife, the suicide note has the following reply.
"I used to beat her up black and blue after getting drunk. A well built man like me, if decides to beat someone black and blue (sic), would leave a person with broken bones, bleeding and at least some marks. Why did she not produce any photo of it or anyone who is a witness (we often had a house maid, cook etc)?"
