Noida: A 22-year-old woman on Saturday held a sit-in protest outside her boyfriend's house in Sector 62 after he allegedly refused to marry her. The woman's mother also joined her.

Police said the couple met during an adventure trip in Uttarakhand over a year ago. The 25-year-old man was preparing for banking services while the woman, a resident of Delhi, used to study at a dance academy in Noida. They became friends and fell in love.

Later he went to Germany to pursue higher studies. The woman also got an internship with a firm in Germany and shifted there. Police said the couple lived together and decided to get married. The woman's mother told TOI that the couple returned to Noida on December 26 last year. "Both the families met and agreed for the marriage," she said. However, trouble began when he allegedly started ignoring her calls 15 days ago. She and her mother then went to his house on Saturday but were told he had left for Germany.

"We were planning their engagement ceremony. The groom's family hatched this plan and sent him abroad without informing us," said the woman's mother.

An FIR was registered at Saket police station last month but when police said there was no development in the case, the woman decided to protest. The man's family said the matter is sub-judice in Delhi high court.

Ravikant Prasar, SHO, Sector 58, said, "We will inform the Delhi Police and try to sort out the issue,"

Ravikant Prasar, SHO Sector 58 police station said, "We will inform the Delhi police about the development and try to sort out the problem with the consent of the two families," he said.
