The accused, Rajendra (name changed), works as a government school teacher in Nelamangala town. On Wednesday night, Rajendra asked his wife, Jalaja (name changed), to imitate the person in the a porn video. However, she declined and tried to get out of the room.

Enraged by this, Rajendra allegedly tore her clothes and bit her shoulder before beating her up with a stick.

On Thursday, police recorded her statement at the hospital and registered a case.

Speaking to TOI, Jalaja said, “We were in love and tied knot in 2004. He had this habit of recording videos in his mobile phone, but I ignored it for a long time. But when he started to do it while I was bathing, it really shocked me. He often used to insist me to watch porn videos. On Wednesday, he forced me to enact a scene from a porn video, which I refused and which is why beat me up.”

However, Nelamangala town police, who are investigating the case, say the her allegation seems to be false. With the help of counsellors, we spoke to their daughters, who are aged 11 and 13. They denied their mother’s allegations. We also took statements from the relatives of the
