Police have sentto Lisa Apte, 23, who left her husband, Satish Apte, 62, months after their marriage, sparking an exchange of police complaints between Satish and his in-laws.The story of the Apte couple fromwho became instant celebrities two years ago after theirwent viral has taken a new twist after the police sent summons to the wife, 23-year-old Lisa, who left her 62-year-old husband months after the marriage, and is now believed to have married someone else.The wedding of Satish, aresident, to Lisa, from, generated a lot of interest in 2015 because of the 39-year-age difference between the couple.Mirror had reported earlier how the ‘dream union’ had turned sour after Lisa’s family accused Satish of trying to sexually assault her when she was a minor and blackmailing her into marrying him.Satish, too, filed a police complaint saying Lisa, who took the name Amruta after the wedding, had gone ‘missing’ and alleged that her sister, Monika, was the troublemaker in their marriage who provoked Lisa to leave him.Satish also charged that Monika took his wife’s jewellery and, after a two-year-pursuit, got her arrested a month ago for cheating and breach of trust.He is still looking for Lisa, though he has an inkling where she might be, he said. “She is inand has married someone else. I have stated this to the police several times but they say that she does not want to return and they cannot bring her back forcefully. But I will not rest till she is behind bars,” said Satish Apte.Satish was an employee of Lisa and Monika’s father, and looked after the family properties after their father’s death.He further said that Lisa herself was a “victim in a sense”, alleging that her family exploited her. “When I married her I had rescued her from a remand home. We are childhood sweethearts and I know she loved me. But it is her family who is behind our separation. They have harassed me so much for the last two years.”He added that he was ready to take Lisa back as “she still is my wife; we are not divorced.” But he said that he wanted to get her arrested first to discipline her.In his complaint to the police, Satish had said that his wife left their house in March 2015 after an argument with his mother. After he lodged a police complaint, her family went into hiding but he refused to give up. He circulated their pictures and his story on social media, and helped the cops trace his sister-inlaw.“My wife’s father and sister came over to stay at our Naupada house after the wedding. Ours is a small house and my in-laws’ presence inconvenienced everyone, so my mother asked them to leave. This resulted in an argument between my wife and mother. That was the start of all the problems. Monika was against our wedding because she wanted to marry me. She brainwashed my wife to leave me,” he said.A week ago, the cops sent summons to Lisa to an address where she is suspected to be hiding.Sub-inspector Ajay Gangavne of Naupada police station said, “His basic complaint was against his sisterin-law and her family and she has been arrested. Investigations are on.”
