Tiwari's family later found out on social media that Prakhar had allegedly used fake identities and had been involved in around 25 marriages across different states and cheated them out of money.
After bringing his daughter home, Tiwari called for strict action and said in a video that he demanded strict punishment, including the death penalty, for Anuj Trivedi.
Police have now arrested both Anuj and Prakhar.
