The woman alleged that the man is eyeing her father's property. "Recently, my father purchased a flat which my husband wants to take possession of. On December 1, he threatened to throw our daughter out of the window of our 16th-floor residence if I don't convince my father to give him the property," she said.



"He often said he does not consider the baby as his daughter," the woman's FIR read. "I went to take my medicine and when I returned, I saw my husband touching my daughter inappropriately and masturbating," it added.

The woman's family helped her register an FIR. A case has also been registered against her relatives. Her father, a social worker, said, "The accused had been pressuring the police to not register an FIR. Now, he got hospitalised to evade arrest. He is using his political influence to diffuse the matter." Kasarvadavli police said the accused father will be arrested after he is discharged from the hospital in Thane.
