In a new twist to the Imrana case, another daughter-in-law of the accused, Ali Mohammed, has filed a defamation case against the rape victim.

Munazra Begum filed the case in a local court in Muzaffarnagar alleging Imrana's statements, that the daughters-in-law of the family were raped by Mohammed, were defamatory.

The court has fixed August 12 for hearing Munazra's statement in the case. Imrana had alleged that she was raped by her father-in-law following which the Darul Uloom at Deoband issued a fatwa saying she could no longer live with her husband.
