Shabnam was stunned when her husband’s friends told her that she would be handed over to them
In a story akin to the Pandavas’ tale in the epic Mahabharata, a Muslim man allegedly staked his wife in gambling after he had lost his money and possessions to some people, police said on Sunday.Mohd. Mokhtar, in his 40s, of Shekhpura town, about 150 km from here, gambled his wife Shabnam, 35, to four of his friends Friday.
Ms Shabnam was stunned when her husband’s friends told her that she would be handed over to them.
“They told me that Mokhtar had lost me in gambling. It frightened me,” she told the police.
The men assaulted and abused her when she refused to go with them.She, along with her two minor sons, met sub-divisional police officer Rajesh Kumar and sought help. Mr Kumar has ordered an inquiry into the incident.Came across this article on Deccan Chronicle Hyderabad Edition and I just couldn't believe it. How could you gamble away your wife or anybody for that matter. And what could the police do as gambling itself is illegal if it involves money but what happens if it involves human lives?

police should simply beat that man to an inch of his life and set an example whose implications would be felt nationwide.
and that woman should divorce that shit of a husband immediately.
I don't normally advocate violence...but in this case I guess I should agree with you..."they should beat him to a pulp"...
