*********** [Order of the Court was made by R.SUBBIAH, J.] The present Habeas Corpus Petition has been filed by the husband of the detenu, seeking a Writ of Habeas Corpus, directing the respondents 1 and 2 to produce the body or person of the detenu, namely, Kaliselvi, W/o.Krishnan, aged 30 years, before this Court and set her at liberty.

2. According to the petitioner, his wife, the detenu herein, was missing from 09.10.2018, onwards. In this regard, the petitioner made a complaint before the second respondent police. On receipt of the said complaint, the second respondent police registered a case in Crime No.364 of 2018, under the caption "Women Missing". Since https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/

there were no effective steps taken by the second respondent police to trace out the detenu, the petitioner has come up with the present Habeas Corpus Petition.

When we enquired the detenu, she has stated that on account of some misunderstanding between her and her husband, the petitioner herein, she went to Thiruppur. She has further stated that now she is willing to go along with the petitioner.

4. On enquiry, the petitioner has also stated that he is ready and willing to join the hands of the detenu.
