Bangalore court questions severity of domestic violence allegations against in-laws

The record

Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.

A Bangalore court heard a plea by a 29-year-old woman's in-laws, including her 69-year-old mother-in-law, seeking to quash a dowry harassment FIR filed under Section 498A of the IPC.
The woman, who argued her own case as a lawyer, alleged mental and physical cruelty, saying her husband took her salary, she was not given nutritious food, and she endured the situation for five and a half months before leaving.
The single-judge bench of Justice M. Nagaprasanna questioned whether ordinary domestic frictions, such as a mother-in-law asking for dosa or ragi mudde to be made, could be equated with cruelty under the law, though it said the husband would not be spared.
The court reserved its order after giving an oral observation that some allegations cannot amount to cruelty and could instead be raised in divorce proceedings.
