She was found out when the mum-in-law entered the kitchen and saw her squatting over the teapot for a tinkle.
Her friend Alia Kohli, 32, said: "She was very unhappy with her arranged marriage and said her husband treated her like a slave and eventually she decided she’d had enough.
"But after moving out, he begged her to go back for the sake of their four-year-old daughter.
"She agreed but only if he cooked for her, massaged her feet and did all the washing up."
Rekha moved back in to the martial home with husband Deepak, 34, in the district of Indore in India's central Madhya Pradesh state.
But her parents-in-law Suraj, 60, and Ajith, 55, found out about the arrangement and tried to stop it.
Kohli said: "Rekha's husband seemed fine with it but the in-laws went mental and accused her of treating him like a slave.
"Rekha is strong-minded and likes to be independent and the thought of being dictated to by his parents was just too much for her.
"So I guess that’s when she decided to start doing what she did, and urinating in their tea."
Disgusted mum-in-law Suraj said: "We used to go and visit them once or twice a week.
"And although we knew she didn’t like us we had no idea she was doing this.
"She always smiled and offered us tea and we accepted.
"But one day I went into the kitchen and found her urinating into the teapot."
The horrified parents-in-law reported the matter to police but was told there was no criminal case.
So they launched a private prosecution against Rekha.
Suraj said: "You cannot urinate into someone’s tea for a year and get away with it.
"We want justice."
Rekha and Deepak are now understood to be living apart.
