In her complaint, the the Class XI student said,
My mother has been giving me an overdose of some tablets to boost body growth. Whenever I consume the tablets, I become unconscious and the next day, my body swells. It is painful and is disturbing my education.
My mother also tortured me to become intimate with some persons, claiming to be filmmakers, who visited her house.

She wants to make me ready for ‘commitments’ with movie directors and producers after completion of my intermediate. Whenever I refused to take the tablets, she would beat me. She would also threaten to give me electric shocks.
