Bijnore, Uttar Pradesh, Jan 12 (IBNS) Police have arrested a woman caught on CCTV footage beating up and tin rying to strangulate her elderly mother-in-law in a house in Bijnore in Uttar Pradesh, reports said.

Sangeeta Jain was arrested in the  morning for attempted murder after the video of her vicious assault on her 70-year-old mother-in-law Rajrani Jain went viral on social media. The camera had been secretly installed by her husband.

She claims the video is fake. "They made this fake video to ruin me. They beat me so many times...there is no video of that," she said.

The disturbing visuals are from January 5, when the two women were at their home in Bijnore.

Sangeeta is seen mercilessly beating the older woman, trying to strangle her with a cloth, dragging her by her hair and slapping her repeatedly. 

"She came out of the kitchen and started slapping me.  She also started to beat me with bricks...I do not know why she does it," Rajrani Jain has been quoted as saying. 

Her  son Sandeep has been married for seven years to Sangeeta, and faces dowry harassment and marital rape cases. A divorce is also in process.
