Kanpur, May 19: In a bizarre incident from Uttar Pradesh’s Etawah district, a woman allegedly eloped with her husband’s uncle, taking along her two daughters while leaving her son behind. The family, devastated by the incident, has announced an INR 20,000 reward for anyone who helps bring the woman and children back.

The victim, Jitendra Kumar, who works as a taxi driver, discovered the situation on April 3 upon returning home from Kanpur, India Today reported. “My wife ran away with Nandram, who is like a paternal uncle to me.
