Court No. - 79
Case :- HABEAS CORPUS WRIT PETITION No. - 458 of
2023

Counsel for Petitioner :- Pradeep Kumar,Mohd Rehan Ansari
Counsel for Respondent :- G.A.,Abhinab Mishra
Hon'ble Vipin Chandra Dixit,J.
Heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the record.
This habeas corpus writ petition has been filed on behalf of
Smt. Isha Saxena (corpus) through her husband petitioner no. 2
namely Aman Anand with the allegation that the corpus has
been illegally detained by respondent nos. 4 to 6 who are
mother, father and maternal uncle of corpus respectively.
Learned counsel appearing on behalf of corpus as well as
respondent nos. 4 to 6 has raised preliminary objection that the
present habeas corpus writ petition has been filed by petitioner
no. 2 on behalf of corpus petitioner no. 1 by concealing the
material facts. It is further submitted that there is matrimonial
dispute between the husband petitioner no. 2 and wife petitioner
no. 1 (corpus) and petitioner no. 1 has voluntarily left the house
of her husband. He further states that corpus wife had already
filed an application under Section 125 Cr.P.C. against her
husband for claiming maintenance and has also filed a
complaint under the provisions of Domestic Violence Act.
In view of above, since the corpus voluntarily resides with her
parents and has also filed cases against her husband, the corpus
could not be said to be in illegal confinement of respondent nos.
4 and 6.
No cause of action survives in the present habeas corpus writ
petition and the same is liable to be dismissed.
The habeas corpus writ petition is dismissed, accordingly.
