If a cyclist hits a pedestrian, we blame cyclist,  .... if a motor bike hits a cycle, we blame motorbiker ... on and on and on. We don't need a reason to start a blame game ...... basic principle is "always blame the relatively powerful". Its a strange world that we live in where violence is justified by violence, and is always reasonable when it is committed by "ME". As porcelina proudly said

"if i met this guy in the street i would jagaltyaing him"

I don't see any differnce between that husband and you. Isn't  it the same thing that the wife claimed her husband to have done. No offense to you please porcelina, you were carried away by her plight but we are what we are brought up with "Garbage in, Garbage out"

Long story short, we should stop jumping to the conclusion ....... listen to her again ... It seems all hyped up ... "nari diwas ko din ...... , mero chora behos ...... , ma mare pani ......" sounds like a movie clip. She talks about people getting scared ...... is she kiddin ....... makes me laugh visualising "people getting scared with section officer of some krishi bank who lives in rented room" ...... above all she doesnot have a single sign of acute physical abuse. Looking at the way she is talking I bet that she would show to all if she had even a small scratch.

By all this please do not take me as a male chauvinist prick. I believe the husband shouldnot go unpunished if he is the dowry hungry bastard as she claims, otherwise we should be cautious coz many people use their weakness as their best weapon.
