CORAM:

HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE INDERJIT SINGH

Present:

Mr. Harpinder Kaur Sandhu, Advocate for the petitioners. **** INDERJIT SINGH, J.

Petitioners have filed this petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. for issuance of directions to respondents No.1 to 3 to protect their life and liberty and to provide adequate security to protect them from respondents No.4 and 5, who are parents of petitioner No.1. The petitioners, who are present in Court today, further contend that they being major have solemnized marriage with their own consent in accordance with law. The private respondents are not accepting the marriage of the petitioners and are extending threats to them. The copies of 'Aadhar' cards of the petitioners (Annexures P-1 and P-2), copy of marriage certificate (Annexure P-3) and marriage photographs (Annexure P-4) have been placed on record. Without going into the validity of the marriage, the present petition is disposed of with the directions to the petitioners to contact respondents No.2 and 3, who, after their satisfaction that the petitioners are actually facing threat, shall take necessary steps to protect the life and liberty of the petitioners from private respondents No.4 and 5, as per law.

In view of above, Incharge Police Post situated in this Court is directed to provide security to the petitioners from this Court enabling them to contact respondents No.2 and 3, to whom direction has already been issued to protect the life and liberty of the petitioners.
