Would you look at this rishta?

A person looking to get married; this individual’s mom/dad has a sibling who committed a crime in which a life was taken. It was quite a sensational and ugly case, except not many know of this person’s relation to the one who is serving time. Mom/Dad had nothing to do with events that took place.

All parties live in different countries.

Is this information to be divulged to each prospective ‘rishta’?

Is it anyone’s business?

If info is divulged, when do you ‘bring up’ this subject?

And then, would you on this site have an issue with a prospective and or spouse who has a relative who is incarcerated?

Please think very deeply about this.

Re: Would you look at this rishta?

Especially because the parents are disconnected with their criminal sibling, I dont see an issue at all.

I think this is CID

Bit unfair to judge him/her based on someone else's wrongdoing

Re: Would you look at this rishta?

I can see how many people will make an issue out of it, specially if it is the girl's side, and if it happens to be in Pakistan

Re: Would you look at this rishta?

Yes, it is 'girl's' side, and not in Pakistan, in North America.

Is it fair on any party, that this matter is a huge issue? People want rishtas from families that have spotless reputations, but little realise every family has some skeletons or other in the closet. This particular case became very dirty, and info is easily available through media. The family of the accused was very maligned, and dragged through the mud. Other family members who live away from the case were not mentioned at all.

Hopefully the guy's side is able to use their better judgement and common-sense.

Let the girl go away live her life with her husband and with time this BS will die off

Re: Would you look at this rishta?

I personally would not feel comfortable. I understand it is not the girl's fault for what their aunt or uncle did, but when it involves something as gruesome as this, I am just not comfy. I do feel bad that it negatively affects the girl's chances of getting married though.
