Versus

State of Haryana and others ....Respondents

CORAM:

HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SHEKHER DHAWAN

Present:

Mr. S.N. Sharma, Advocate, for the petitioners. **** SHEKHER DHAWAN, J.

Both the petitioners are present in the Court and are identified by their counsel.

Petitioners have sought protection of their lives and liberty, inter alia, taken the plea that they performed the marriage with each other, whereas private respondents are not accepting their marriage and now they are apprehending danger to their lives and liberty from private respondents. Petitioners have also taken the plea that they are major and have performed their marriage with free will. Having considered the submissions made by learned counsel counsel for the petitioners and perusal of record, Deputy Commissioner of Police, Ambala (respondent No.2) is directed to consider the representation dated 13.09.2015 (Annexure P-4) and issue necessary orders, as warranted by law, so as to ensure that no harm is caused to the life and liberty of the petitioners at the hands of private respondents.

However, it is also made clear that this order shall not entitle the petitioners for any protection against their arrest or continuance of any criminal proceedings, if they are found involved in the commission of any cognizable offence. In case the petitioners had committed any offence, the law will take its own course.

With the above-said observations made and directions issued, the present petition stands disposed of.
