India: A serial misuser of dowry law gets arrested

Finally a women gets arrested but after she has blackmailed and extorted 10 men. Story here and here. Please note that this businessman brought this to light by hiring private detectives and had lost his finger due to violence by his wife. She earned 20 million rupess this way, a huge sum that can take of at least 5 people for life. I find it most obnoxious that 10 husbands earlier rewarded her for her behaviour instead of fighting it out. Excerpt:

'A 32-year-old woman and her parents were arrested on Saturday by the Sion police for allegedly cheating a city businessmen over the last 18 years.

The police said Bangalore-based Kausar Begam used to cheat people by marrying them and fleeing with their money and valuables. The, she used to register complaints of dowry harassment cases against her husbands. Begam’s parents Iqbal Pasha and Gulnaz, who had been allegedly assisting her, have also been remanded in police custody till April 8.'
