"According to reports, the woman has filed a complaint with the Moradabad police alleging that she was asked to perform halala, a practice in which a woman divorcee marries someone else, consummates the marriage and then gets a divorce. This makes her lawful to the former husband."

That idea, as bizarre as it is, is not "extremist," it is standard, Qur'anic Islam. If a man says "talaq," you are divorced, to his wife, then she is divorced. But he can tell her to come back after he says it once, and do this again after he says it a second time. But if he says it three times, then she has to marry another man, consummate the marriage, and be divorced by him before she can return to her first husband, should he wish her to return. This is all based on the Qur'an: "Divorce is twice. Then, either keep her in an acceptable manner or release her with good treatment. And it is not lawful for you to take anything of what you have given them unless both fear that they will not be able to keep the limits of Allah . But if you fear that they will not keep the limits of Allah, then there is no blame upon either of them concerning that by which she ransoms herself. These are the limits of Allah, so do not transgress them. And whoever transgresses the limits of Allah, it is those who are the wrongdoers. And if he has divorced her thrice, then she is not lawful to him afterward until she marries a husband other than him. And if the latter husband divorces her, there is no blame upon the woman and her former husband for returning to each other if they think that they can keep the limits of Allah. These are the limits of Allah, which He makes clear to a people who know." (Qur'an 2:229-230)
