A young woman in Subhash Nagar locality in Bareilly district has been caught on CCTV camera trying to strangle her infant son.

A young woman in Subhash Nagar locality in Bareilly district has been caught on CCTV camera trying to strangle her infant son.

The CCTV camera was installed in the house by her husband Deepak Chaturvedi after neighbour’s informed him that the child was being beaten by his wife Poonam.

In the video, Poonam is seen beating and abusing the baby and when he does not stop crying, she even attempts to strangle him.

Deepak told local reporters on Friday that he put up the cameras without informing his wife. He said that he married Poonam four years ago, but her behaviour started changing after their son was born one-and-a-half years ago.

The wife, meanwhile, has lodged a complaint with the police accusing the husband of demanding dowry. She has now gone to her parents’ house with her son.

Deepak Chaturvedi said that he would now approach the court with the CCTV footage and seek action against his wife, as well as the custody of their son. The Uttar Pradesh police are yet to begin investigation in the matter.
