Matrimonial offence committed abroad-jurisdiction of Indian court
As I have already discussed the husband started committing the offence immediately after of the marriage on the same day evening and it continued till her return to India. Since it is a matrimonial dispute between the husband and wife and further both the persons are Indians, there is no need for any previous sanction as provided under Section 188 of the Cr.P.C. Therefore, I am of the view that the present complaint is maintainable in law. It does not require any sanction since it is a day to day domestic quarrel. While considering the other contentions of the learned senior counsel appearing for the petitioners it is seen that already two complaints have been given by the spouse at USA.
