K.Vinod Chandran, J.

The daughter of the petitioners is present before us. She submitted that she has come on her on accord from Bangalore where she is working. The daughter of the petitioners categorically told us that she left her parental home on her own free will due to violence perpetrated by her parents. The petitioners' daughter is also said to be married, but, now estranged from her husband. We will not go into the allegations of violence she asserted, however, it is very clear that she has left her parental home on her own free will. In such circumstance, we direct the daughter of the petitioners to go on her own free will. The writ petition would stand dismissed.
