Muslim Woman Accuses Husband of 'Love Jihad' in Odisha
A woman named Farida Khatun from Odisha has accused her husband, Sayeeduddin Khan, of tricking Hindu women into marrying him.

He allegedly received ₹10 lakh for each marriage and then left the women after getting the money.
The police are now investigating this case.
