AMU professor gives triple talaq to wife; case registered

A case has been registered against Khalid Bin Yusuf Khan; a Sanskrit Professor in Aligarh Muslim University after his wife accused him of divorcing her through triple talaq.

The lady who has been identified as Yaseem Khalid said that she along with her children will commit suicide if justice is not delivered.

This incident comes to light two months after Supreme Court of India pronounced triple talaq as 'unconstitutional'.

Speaking to ANI, Khalid said first she was given talaq via text then verbally when she met him for compromise. "On 30th October, he gave me talaq via a text, again on 8th November he verbally gave me talaq when I and children went to him to seek his help," said Yaseem Khalid.

Yaseem also alleged that her husband locked all the doors of the house they were staying in.

"My husband came back to our house and abused my children and locked our house."

Yaseem also revealed the reason behind the entire dispute and said, "My husband helped someone get a job in the University so the students in the Department wrote a letter to the Vice-Chancellor. He accused me of writing the letter." said Yaseem.

Yaseem has registered a case in Aligarh's Civil Lines Police Station.
