Description
Three sisters and their children were found dead in a well in a village in northern India, victims of disputes over dowries -- the often hefty sums Indian parents pay to marry off their daughters. Kalu, Kamlesh and Mamta Meena had wed brothers from the same household and lived under the same roof, but suffered constant violence from their husbands and in-laws, according to the trio's grieving relatives.
