    The mother-in-law is making an aggressive move towards the daughter-in-law and the daughter-in-law seems to have acted in self-defence. The police should look at the video clip and take a decision rather than acting on emotional complaints.

    Although the teacher's act is condemnatory, the mouth of her mother-in-law may also bad... who knows?

    She is not fit for the noble profession, please, HANG HER TO DEATH or MURDER HER UNDER POLICE CUSTODY. Serving any sentence is seemingly no use.

    When the mother becomes the mother-in-law, she becomes more protective of the son. The main reason is that the mother thinks the son is supposed to be the caretaker of her. The mother thinks the son will be more attached to the wife. The only way the mother can keep the son on her side is by making false accusations. Mothers should step away from their son's lives...
