She said if justice was not done to her, she will commit suicide in front of the Vice- Chancellor’s house. The practice of instant triple talaq was declared illegal by the Supreme Court on August 22. “He (Khan) turned me out of the house and I have been running from pillar to post to get justice. But no one has helped me so far. However, with the help of police, I did manage to get access to my house on Friday evening,” Times Now quoted Khalid as saying.

However, Khalid Khan denied the allegations. He said he was deceived by his wife about her studies prior to their marriage. “To the contrary, she has been harassing me for the last two decades. She had hidden various facts from me before our marriage. I later got to know that she was not even a graduate, unlike what she had claimed. I will give her the third talaq too, on a proper date, and no one can stop me. I don’t care what she does,” Yasmeen added. Also Read - AMU Asks its Students to Return Home
