The 24-year-old woman, who lives in the small village of Wardha, Mudhya Predesh province, according to DailyMail, was also beaten by a mob and then tonsured - a religious practice of shaving someone's head to show shame or humility.
According to officers the mother had been
having an affair with a man in his 20s named Kamlesh, and decided to elope with him to neighbouring Gujarat province days before the attack. However her
husband found her and brought her back to the village on New Year's Eve, where she was taken in front of council elders who ordered the unusual punishment.
Villagers then carried out the orders despite the husband objecting, saying he was expecting a less severe sentence.
