Mumbai, Feb 5 (IBNS): By posting a video on Twitter, a woman in Mumbai has sought help from police against 'torture' of her husband.

In the video, the woman could be seen weeping and asking help from the police.
She was quoted as saying in the video: "I have been tortured mentally and physically by my husband. He has been torturing me for several years. I have been in the relationship just for the betterment of my children. But this man refuses to do the needful for my living."
