:

Learned counsel for the petitioners submits that the petitioners have married each other against the wishes of their family members and on account of this act on their part, they are under threat of being eliminated at the hands of respondents No. 4 to 10. In view of the above, seeking protection, a representation dated 20.03.2017 (Annexure P-5) was made by the petitioners to the Superintendent of Police, Faridabad but to no avail. In the above circumstances, the petitioners have approached this Court through the present petition.

Without expressing any opinion on the merits of the matter, particularly the validity of the alleged marriage, the present petition is disposed of with a direction to the Superintendent of Police, Faridabad Monika 2017.03.24 15:35 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document
