Battered Women’s Syndrome - FindLaw
So a forced marriage is to play ludoo..lol. So do you think a dulha has sex with a dulhan? If he didnt want sex with her why keep her confined and force her into a marriage she didnt want.
BWS and the Law
Battered woman syndrome is now recognized in legislation by many states and is considered when defending battered wives who kill or injure their abusive spouses. For the courts, BWS is an indication of the defendant’s state of mind or may be considered a mitigating circumstance. For example, the court may consider that a BWS woman felt that she was justified in attacking her abuser, and that she was in reasonable fear of imminent danger due to her condition and her experiences with the abuser.
