3. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the marriage between the petitioner and his wife was a love marriage and the parents of the petitioner took his wife to their house and he was not allowed to see his wife and hence, the petitioner lodged a complaint before the Commissioner of Police, Salem and as a counter blast, a false complaint has been lodged against the petitioner and that petitioner has not committed any such offence. He further submitted that the petitioner is in custody for more than 45 days and hence he may be enlarged on bail.
