Dear Nadeem,
In false 498a complaint case HC passed an order asking husband to surrender in Trial court within 21 days. Since the accused live far away & they anticipate danger to life, he moved SLP against HC order. But SLP got dismissed and meanwhile the husband lost his 15 days of relief.
Husband was told by counsel that the time taken by SC (even if SLP is rejected) in not included in the interim relief provided by the HC. But now he is told to pursue remedy in Trial court only.
The interim relief was - No coercive action would be taken if accused surrender in 15 days and that his bail application to be considered under Amravati/Kamlendra ..."
It is really sad that the time consumed at superior court is not excluded in the relief period provided by lower courts. It seems that appraching superior court is just a gamble ...as one is double penalised if superior reject his pray.
