Bombay high court tells man to pay wife after charge of adultery fails
MUMBAI: A man's attempt to avoid paying maintenance to his estranged wife by furnishing her signed confessional statement about indulging in adultery failed to pass muster with the Bombay high court.
Justice T V Nalawade expressed doubts that an educated woman would sign such a statement of her own free will and ordered Ahmednagar resident Amit Tambe to pay maintenance to his wife Shalini.
"It does not look probable that an educated lady like the wife in the present case would give an admission in writing about illicit relations," said Justice Nalawade.
