Daijiworld Media Network - Mangaluru (SP)

Mangaluru, Nov 25: Aadhunik Human Rights Committee led by its state president Rajesh Coelho and Dakshina Kannada district president Shabbir Ullal, alleged that Asia Joobi Asiya Ibrahim Khaleel Kattekar, wife of Ibrahim Khaleel Kattekar, has been forcibly kept away from her husband by Ibrahim Khaleel's elder brother Shihab and other family members, who have been forcing Ibrahim Khaleel Kattekar to stay away from his wife.

Shanthi Joobi is from Kannur, Kerala. She had got to know Ibrahim Khaleel Kattekar, son of Abdul Haji Kattekar through Facebook. After the two came to know each other well, their Nikah was performed on July 12, 2017. After marriage, Shanthi Joobi changed her name to Asiya Ibrahim Khaleel Kattekkar. The couple stayed at various rented houses in Bengaluru, Mysuru etc.

After they came to know about the marriage of Ibrahim, his elder brother Shihab, and others took Asiya's husband away to their house at Sullia, duly asking Asiya to stay at Bengaluru. Thereafter, they stayed away from her. When Asiya tried to contact her husband, the family members threatened to kill him, it is said. Both sides met and held discussions at Puttur and Sullia police stations but their problems have not been resolved. Asiya says that her husband has been concealed somewhere and his mobile has been switched off. She says that when she went to her husband's family home, she was threatened with murder by Shihab. Efforts made by several organisations to help her also failed.

Asiya has alleged that Shihab has been sending obscene messages to her. Asiya says that as per his demand, money was given several times exceeding Rs 25 lac in addition to two luxury cars and two scooters. Still, the family is not happy and continues to inflict mental torture, Asiya says, and repeats the allegation that she has been kept away from her husband.

Asiya has now approached the media seeking their help in get united with her husband, Ibrahim Khaleel Kattekar and help her to lead a married life with him.

    Why girl has to change her religion? If it is a interfaith marriage, then he/she should be allowed to practice their religion even after their marriage or else they should look for a life partner from their own community.

    Authorities should intervene in returning back her dowry 25 lacs or more with vehicles. They don't have the right on your money and vehicles. It is your right take it back. Buy a house and live happily.

    An incident happened in Bangalore several years ago inter - religion marriage between christian man and Muslim woman ended up in deadly tragedy after both were located and murdered by brothers of girl. that news is still fresh in my mind, prior to murder there was lot of pressure from her siblings & father to terminate relationship they tried to change apartments in several locations but finally they were tracked and killed in gruesome manner. the news was in media for several days

    in India Inter caste works, but inter religion marriage often ends up in tragedy.

    Most honour killings reported in our newspapers are caste killings, or killings in the name of caste especially with respect to the right of choosing their life partners.

    Subhashchandra mangalore,you are right.Funny in this interreligion between muslim boy marrying girl from other religion is tolerated but not muslim girl and boy from other religion.

    Here I find no solution i for the couple .Instead of lot of press conference and waiting ,to lead a normal married life,she must now good or bad have to give Talak ,see her way out of own so that no life threat ,and further dowry harass arise.

    I am sure they will again and again demand dowry,girl is giving and waiting hoping to come is not a fine way what boy is doing.If he is a gentle man ,really loves her he would come out long ago.No he is playing with her.why two cars and scooters?Is she buying him ?shame to the boy.close the matte if you want to get out of their clutches dear girl.

    Other day I was reading somewhere to ban love jihad. Based on repeated cases it is high time to revisit these love jihad stories and ban them .

    Second anyone demands dowry put the whole family behind bars and cease their assets to pay the cost of the prison time. Do it for 6 months these drama of love and fakus will disappear. I feel sorry for the lady but I fail to understand her why she is still her hiding or stolen husband waiting for. May be with a family he is in together to get rid of this lady. Anything is possible with such people. Best is move on with your life and be a free hindustani women.

    Rita Germany,
    You say
    "Funny in this interreligion between muslim boy marrying girl from other religion is tolerated but not muslim girl and boy from other religion". you are absolutely right. However, in an event where the Girl is muslim, there is pressure on the boy to change his religion. many a time the boy caves in fearing for his life. There are some exceptions though especially among films tars and few politicians.

    Many a times i wanted to make you understand this phenomena wherever there is some controversy in inter faith marriages appearing in some daiji news. i failed to make you understand. now i am happy that you also are convinced that in some cultures love is one way street only.

    What name change u make or what religion you follow is your personal choice. People need to mind their own business and respect others choices. What needs to be addressed here is finding the husband in good health and join the couple. Also put a case on the so called elder brother for kidnap of husband, keeping the couple apart without free will, threatening the Wife, demanding of ransom and dowry.

    Nic mangalore,no use of putting case.It did not work till now ,in future too will not.They are using him as a money maschine ,so that girl pays and hopes.it is a gone case.If he is a man enough,would act also so ,not listening home people,go to wife without any demand .Girls it is not enough a blind love,but boy should be couragious enough to face problems.Not demand money and valueables from girls house,but earn your own and give to her.

    What an andha kanoon . The boys family gets a girl for everything that she has to take responsibility who has to leave her family forever and be with the married husband and his family. I feel all agree with me that let the would be husband whosoever give money to girls parents who have raised her, educated her and now allowing her to be with an outside family who have done nothing to raise her. The dowry rules should be reversed with immediate effect to show to the present literate generation.
