Rehana also claimed that her brother-in-law Maqbool Hussain, sisters-in-law Parveen and Shakeela attacked her with acid on April 14. “Hindu law at least reaffirms the right of consensus a woman should have in marriage and gives a woman a say. That’s something Islam lacks, paving the way for triple talaq,” Rehana was quoted as saying by Mail Today.
