JUDGMENT
Raja Vijayaraghavan, J.
The petitioner is the mother of the detenu who is aged about
22 years. She has approached this Court with this writ petition
seeking issuance of a writ of Habeas corpus by alleging that her adult
daughter is illegally detained against her wish by the 1st respondent,
who is the son of the 2nd respondent.
2. The parties were directed to appear before this Court.
We have interacted with the petitioner, alleged detenu as well as the
1st respondent. The detenu stated before us that she has been in
love with the 1st respondent for the past five years and they are
planning to get married. She stated that she is not under illegal
detention.
3. We have considered the submissions advanced.
4. In a petition for issuance of writ of Habeas Corpus, we
are primarily concerned with the question whether the alleged
detenu is detained against her wish, will, or desire by anyone. In the
case on hand, the alleged detenu, who is an adult lady, has appeared
before us and has stated in unmistakable terms that she is not under
illegal detention. In that view of the matter, nothing further survives
in this petition.
This Writ Petition (Crl) is closed.
