Woman complained to Army against major INDORE: In a bizarre case, police have booked a police officer's wife for fraudulently marrying an Army officer, while claiming that she is in her twenties and unmarried.The accused, a 48-year-old, is an officer in the Madhya Pradesh administration. Annapurna police station TI Satish Kumar Devedi said, "An FIR has been filed against her under IPC sections 389, 419, 420, 467, 468, 471, 494, 495 and 120 B and action will be initiated at the earliest." The charges include marrying again during lifetime of spouse and concealing information of the first marriage from him, putting a person in fear of accusation of offence in order to commit extortion, cheating by impersonation, forgery and using a fake document.According to police, the woman met the Army officer on Tinder in April 2017. She had created a fake Facebook account and linked it to the dating app under a false name, 'Anisha'. The Armyman, a 30-year-old Major then posted in the Northeast, has told police that he met 'Anisha' on Tinder two years back. The two began chatting and she allegedly told the soldier that she is 24 years old but "looks older and has gained weight" because she was suffering from a 'rare heart disorder'.The officer believed her and came over to Indore and met her for the first time on May 3, 2017, say police.The officer believed her and came over to Indore and met her for the first time on May 3, 2017, say police.Their friendship turned into a relationship and they started meeting each other more regularly.

He confronted her, but she allegedly refused to admit her mistake.After the Armyman stopped talking to her, she threatened to falsely implicate him in a rape case and spoil his career in the Forces.
