On her complaint, the case has been registered for the offences stated above.

The first petitioner issued a legal notice to the de-facto complainant on 29.09.2015 through his counsel for re-union. Immediately, the de-facto complainant has given the complaint before the respondent police. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/
