The appellant was a 36 years old Indian woman named Kiranjit Ahluwalia, who entered into an arranged marriage with Deepak Ahluwalia. She had suffered many years of physical, psychological and sexual abuse from her husband. There were records of her husband hitting her on multiple occasions and of attempts to run her down. The appellant had attempted suicide in 1983 and again in 1986. The Croydon Country court had granted her an injunction to restrain her husband from hitting her twice. Despite the court order, the husband continued to abuse her and had also threatened to kill her with a knife. In addition to these, the husband was having an extra marital affair and taunted the appellant about the same. Nevertheless, the appellant decided not to terminate her relationship with him due to pressure from her family and for the sake of the 2 sons who were born to her from the marriage.
