Renuka, 25, Muttaguddam village, Kammam district, Andhra Pradesh, “My neighbour’s husband beat her so hard that her eardrums got damaged. But he still continued beating her. I intervened once and he and his mother abused me and threatened me as well. But I refused to get intimidated and persist in reaching their home every time he beats her. The beatings still continue. All I can hope is that other people will support me and together we can stop him from abusing her.”
