The husband has filed this Habeas Corpus Petition seeking for producing the person or body of his wife and to set her at liberty.
2. After notice was ordered by this Court, the detenue was produced before this Court today.
3. We enquired the detenue. She stated that she is not in good terms with her husband and that she is living in her relatives' house in Karur and she is not willing to go along with the petitioner.
4. In our considered view, we cannot force the detenue to go along with the petitioner and if at all there is any dispute between the parties, the same has to be worked out before the competent Court in the manner known to law.
5. Accordingly, this Habeas Corpus Petition stands closed.
