Two family members, one of whom is an Army Major, have been arrested by the Nurmahal police on suspicion of dowry harassment.

The suspects were identified as Major Nilanshu Rangi, who is assigned to the 66th Armoured Regiment in Ahmadnagar, Maharashtra, and his mother, Sunita Rangi, who is the spouse of Bhareeg Yashvir Rangi, who lives in DLF Valley, Panchkula, Haryana, according to Investigating Officer (IO) Inspector Sandeep Kaur.
