He said the case against the four has been registered at the Kharkhauda police station in the district.
     
     
    The police said that the woman, a resident of a village under Kharkhauda police station area, had been married to a native of Dhaulana area near Hapur and her in-laws had been allegedly demanding a car and Rs. 2 lakh in cash from her parents as dowry.
     
     
    The woman has alleged that for her failure to meet her in-laws' dowry demand, she was often beaten up, confined to a room and kept hungry for long.
     
     
    The three-month pregnant woman, who also has a daughter, has alleged that one day her father-in-law and her brother-in-law's spouse raped her in absence of her husband, the police said.
     
     
    The husband, on hearing of her wife's complaint of sexual assault by his father and brother-in-law, divorced her under talaq-ul-biddat (triple talaq) and told her to leave the house, the police said.
