Mangaluru/Kasargod: A 24 year-old woman from Kerala has been rescued after being under “illegal confinement” in a house here following her mother’s objection to her relationship with a Muslim youth, police said.

Hailing from Thrissur in Kerala, the woman was kept under illegal confinement at the rented house of a local BJP leader for the last one year, they said adding a case had been registered against her mother.

Police rescued the woman last week following investigations after she posted a video on the social media about her plight two months ago.

She had uploaded a video clip from an undisclosed destination in the city on her plight in the social media two months ago, after which the police conducted an investigation and traced her.

The woman was rescued five days ago and had been accommodated in a womens rehabilitation centre here as she needed treatment, police said.

Deputy Commissioner of Police Uma Prashant said a case had been registered against the woman’s mother for forcible detention.

In the video, the woman was seen saying her family had been telling everyone that she was working in the city while shewas in confinement.

“This house belongs to a BJP leader and Iam mentally drained,” she had said.
