Couple travel From India to Florida to beat up their son’s wife

Police in Florida, United States have arrested three Indians, the Kalsis, after officers found a manhandled woman and child being held at a home in Hillsborough County.

According to the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s office, the woman’s husband — 33-year-old Devbir Kalsi — had beaten her and his parents had flown in from India to “counsel and discipline” the woman — 33-year-old Silky Gaind — at his request.

Deputies described Gaind as “badly beaten and bruised over her entire body,” allegedly from beatings by her husband and his parents.
According to the Tampa Bay Times, police said the alleged beatings had “been ongoing for an extended period of time.”

Authorities learned about the case when Gaind called her parents in India on Saturday to tell them. Her parents then informed police in the US.
Police officers arrived at the house at around 6.30 a.m. on Saturday morning and heard Gaind “(scream) for the deputy to save her and her child,” the Sheriff’s Office said, according to the newspaper.
