Thousands of Women Burned Alive in India, Not Recognized as Humans, Ministry Warns - christianpost.com
Excerpt from this article:
"'Horrible things like this happen, and many times they happen because of dowry deaths. Before marriage, the families will agree upon a dowry that the bride's family generally will pay to the groom's family.' John explained. 'After marriage, the groom's family sees the leverage of threatening the girl and asking for more money. So they will begin threats, they will begin beatings, and the rule of thumb is something like the more money you want, the more you need to beat her.'"
