According to the mother, police had taken Rini’s statement in the hospital where she said her in-laws poured kerosene and set her afire.

She submitted complaints to the Chief Minister, the DGP, the State Human Rights Commission and the Women’s Commission.
Rini was the mother of a three and half-year-old boy and a three-month-old girl.
