18 Dec 2007, 0309 hrs IST,TNN

HYDERABAD: A Non-Resident Indian (NRI) doctor and his parents were arrested for alleged dowry harassment from their residence in Secunderabad on Saturday last.

Dr Muhammad Parvez was married to Sophia Khan, who hails from the city but was raised in the US, in Jan 2002. Her parents reportedly gave Rs 3 lakh ($7,692) cash, jewellery and other expensive articles and also spent nearly Rs 20 lakh ($51,282) on the marriage.

After two months of marriage, Sophia Khan left for the US where she was subjected to harassment for additional dowry, police said. Her parents were reportedly forced to pay additional dowry on quite a few occasions.

Meanwhile, Dr Muhammad Parvez, a resident of Padmarao Nagar in Secunderabad who stays in the US, reportedly returned to India to marry again. Sophia Khan too came to the city and lodged a complaint with the CCS police who arrested Parvez and his parents—Muhammad Bahauddin and Maqbool Akhtar—and were remanded them to judicial custody.

No, a lot of desi Muslims have bought into the Hindu tradition of a girl's family giving the guy's family a huge dowry (cars, apartments, etc).

What's your point? People here harass each other for dowry too. Or they do it under the guise of "jehaiz" or whatever.

ewww fob girls, who the hell would want that?

you know you people are really naive, because fobs know what their own people are like, which is why many are marrying other fobs - who already have green cards. surprised? im not, because they know how thier own people are, while you all live in some fantasy land that your folks spoon fed you over the years.
