The Andheri police have arrested two sisters and are on the lookout for three to four men who allegedly assaulted and broke the legs of a 22-year-old man from Ahmedabad. The victim had come to Mumbai after being called by one of the accused women to marry her in court, but instead, was assaulted on a road in Andheri East.

According to the police sources, the women— Jayshree Bairagi, 23, and her sister Ritu, 29—are residents of Andheri East. “An interrogation of the sisters revealed that the Jayshree was supposed to marry the victim and their marriage had been fixed in January, with the consent of their respective families. However, her family broke off the relationship in February, after which she refused to marry him,” said an officer.
