In a shocking incident, a 19-year-old tribal girl was allegedly stripped and her head tonsured by her in-laws at a village here for marrying outside her caste, police have said.

The girl, in her complaint lodged with the Padgha police station in Shahapur taluka of Thane district on Saturday, said her in-laws also beat her up severely on August 30 as they were against her marriage with their son Yogesh Patil. She met Yogesh while working at a godown in Bhiwandi town of Thane district.
