Chinnatharapuram Police Station, Karur District and till date, the Police did not take any action on the complaint given by the petitioner.

3.Mr.S.Chandrasekar, learned Additional Public Prosecutor, who accepts notice on behalf of the respondents, on instructions, would submit that the petitioner's daughter Yazini eloped with one Vignesh, Son of Chellamuthu and married him.
