She decided to go with the man and since then they moved to the Firozabad South area and have been living as a married couple.
As per a video statement made by the victim in front of the media, she says one of Arman’s sisters was her friend and it was then she came in touch with him. Soon they began talking, became friends and developed feelings for each other.
Her mother was totally against the alliance and hence she scolded her for even having a friendship with Arman. The woman was a student of B. Pharma and Arman had a business of Bangles.
The Firozabad Story: Like The Kerala Story, this woman was groomed by Muslim friends, ended up having a relationship with Mohd Arman. He would beat her up, his friends made physical relationship with her and what not.

Well, even after her mother’s repeated advice, Anjali decided to leave her home and they eloped from Agra. Upon recovery, she choose Arman over her family and decided to go with him.
By then they get married to each other. If it was a ‘Nikah’ or ‘Court Marriage’, is yet to be clarified by the victim.
About the torture she had faced with Arman, she said, “He drugged her so that he and his friends can make physical relationship with her. They used to bite her over her body, and there were burn marks as well”.
About conversion, a Hindu Jagran Manch activist Madhurima Vashishth said, “The accused used to give the woman sleeping pills with a cold drink, he was forcing her to convert to Islam, he even presented his wife as a gift to his friends who exploited her sexually. He was an alcoholic and used to beat her up every now and then”.
She added, “The woman tried to kill herself”
Anjali in front of the media said, “One of Arman’s friends tried to make physical relationship with her so she attacked him in self-defense. After this Arman thrashed her, and she was fed up with this and hence she cut her veins, however, she did survive”.
This time when Arman beat her up, she told everything to his landlord who called up the members of Hindu Jagran Manch and the woman was rescued from there.
As per the reports, the couple posed as a Hindu couple after which they got the place on rent. Arman never revealed his true identity to the landlord.
She wishes to go with her mother and added strict actions should be taken against the accused.
