JUDGMENT
Dated this the 5th day of February 2021
K. Vinod Chandran, J.
The petitioners are the parents of a married girl, who is
said to be in illegal detention. It was submitted that the third
respondent-husband of the alleged detenue is ill-treating her
along with his mother. The parents also alleged that they have
not been able to talk to their daughter from the fourth onwards
and see her also. Only in such circumstances, we directed the
daughter of the petitioners to be produced before us.
2. Today, she has come before us and she has a different
story to narrate. She says that she is happy in her marital home.
The husband of the alleged detenue is also present. He also
submits that they have no problem between themselves. In fact,
the alleged detenue submits that she had gone to the house of
the parents on the 4th and they wanted her to stay back in the
house, which she refused to. It is hence that she did not pick up
the mobile after she returned from her house to the marital
house. It is also stated before us that she just had an abortion
and that she has not come out of the experience even now. She WP(Crl.).No.39 OF 2021
has in fact brought the medical records, which would indicate
that the allegation of the abortion having been caused by the
violence of the third respondent is negatived. She says that it
was because of stunted growth of the foetus that the abortion
was conducted. We asked her whether she would like to interact
with her parents. She bluntly refused, especially due to the fact
that she has been unnecessarily dragged to the High Court
along with her husband. She also has a grouse against her
parents for reason of the parents having raised unnecessary
complaints even at the workplace of the third respondent, her
husband.
3. We are convinced that there is absolutely no reason to
entertain the writ petition. We would have imposed exemplary
costs but for the fact that the petitioners are the parents of the
alleged detenue.
In the result, writ petition is dismissed.
