Dear Sir,

I am Mr. Khan residing at Bangalore City and respectful citizen of India. I have some queries and require a legal advice with Citations or Judgements from you. It would be highly appreciated in this regards.

Matter:

The Boy (Muslim) was student in 12th std in a boy’s college and very popular sportsman in the college. His birth year is 1984. In the year 2003/04, the boy (Muslim) used to go to tuitions for 12th Science Subjects. In the tuition, a Girl (Hindu) had became friend with him. Even she was coming for 12th std tuition but from other college.

The Boy family background is good. His father is well respected Educationist and Mother is also Professor. The Girl family background is not good. His father is a Mestri (Contractor) and Mother is Housewife cum Dancer. They resided in very bad area in Bangalore were people mentally and quality of living is not good & famous for dirty things.

During there tuitions, her friends used to meet the boy’s friends and the same way this Muslim Boy and Hindu Girl became friends. The Hindu Girl came to know about the Boy’s family status, he used to go in Car and bike. Firstly the Boy tried to avoid, but off sudden many times she used to come to Boy with flattering talks and emotion and ask the boy to help her.

Then this relation went further on, she started telling that she is in love with Muslim Boy. Then, she was always trying to woo and attract him. One day, she told that she cannot stay away from him. So she told that they shall runaway from their houses.

The Boy was also became emotional with her. So, one day they ran away from their homes. Now, she forced the Muslim Boy to marry her. Firstly the Boy got scared and avoid but she pressurized saying everything she and her friends has arrange. The boy was in dilemma.

She took him to one Sri Ganesha Temple in the outskirts of the city and made some rituals and also she told to the Priest that Muslim Boy name is Rajesh(Hindu Name). But the Boy has not changed is Name legally (Still present he is a Muslim with his muslim name only). They taken photo of the pooja and both of them standing together. Some 8 photos have been taken. Then, the boy was afraid. They went back to their homes without informing anything to their parents.

Later on, the Hindu Girl started blackmailing him to run away from their homes. Unbearable she forced the Boy to take a separate home for her. Because her father always beats her. So, he paid some money to her. She taken a Room in her Name.

Then she told that she is not able to stay without him or else she shall trouble him and told that she will trouble his younger brother. Now the Boy got scared to inform the parents. So, he ran away from his home. He taken a bike on loan, and use to work in telecom marketing office. His opened Bank account for his salary purpose. He discontinued his studies.

Now the Boy’s parents came to know all abouts. They tried to convince but because of pressure from her, the boy was afraid to get rid.

But the Girl’s Mother use to go to her rented home and was trying to give trouble to the Boy. Also she use to make plans to give trouble to his parents and sweet brother. The girl use to fight continuously with him.

But after sometime, the Boy realize that he is not going in proper direction and there is nothing to get afraid of anybody in life. So, he decided finally and rejoin with his parents. And after this there is no communication with anyone.

This is how it happened.

The Boy never made contact with her again. He told to his parents that he want to studies further in abroad. So, they sent him for studies.

Now the Case,
1. After longtime, in 2006 the Girl Registered a Complaint in the Police station as 498A, 506B under DP Act.
3. She now in 2012 registered a Divorce Petition u/s 13 in Family court also.
2. They have mentioned some witnesses like her mother, brother, some unknown persons also for creating the complaint.
3. She stated they are married as per Hindu Rituals. Photos in Temple taken. But No Proof of Marriage Certificate or affidavit or any legal document issued from the government or court authority.
4. The Age of Boy was 19 years and the Age of Girl was 18 years also. But as per the legal age to married the Boy must be 21 years.
5. But the Police registered as Dowry only seeing the photos.
6. She filed Divorce Petition u/s 13 of HMA in Family court also now in 2012..

The materials the Girl is having is:
a) Photos taken in the Temple
b) Photos taken outside.
c) Bank Passbook of the Boy with his Original muslim name
d) Bike loan paper of the Boy with his Original muslim name
To the Court, She only submitted the Photos taken in the Temple not others.

Now, I have given all the facts and details about the incident.
1. Its inter-religion.
2. No marriage documents.
3. She never lived at Boy’s parents house.
4. Change of Name.
5. Never the parents asked for anything.
6. No religious conversion taken place on both sides.

You need to file a discharge petition under Cr.pc....The marriage is VOID ab initio...Inter religion are valid under different statue but not in your case.

 

 

The marriage is not only void but illegal if the boy wasn't 21 years of age...498a and Divorce arise out of  a wedlock and not out of a void marriage...

 

 

Citiations are neede for judicial interpreataion of laws but not for the compliance that has been laid down in the statute...

1. Till 2006, the underage marriage was neither VOID not VOIDABLE. And besides, the time for declaring such marriage VOID is 3 years from the date of attainment of marriage on the grounds of underage.

 

2. You have been contesting the case since 2006, why have you woken to this reality now.

 

3. I would advise you to look for amucable solution. For reasoning check your PM.
