Divorce in void marriage (second marriage)

A person who did not take divorce from first marriage and married second time.

Now a person filed a petition of divorce under section 13 of HMA.

How is it possible that when marriage is void and court may/can/will/shall passes the decree of divorce?

Is there any judgement related to such facts of the case when petition under section 13 of HMA dismissed because such bigamous marriage covered by Section 11?

Please share judgement of similar facts metioned above
