The court also directed the police to provide protection to the couple and asked them to take action against the girl’s parents if they created trouble again
In what could be a scene from Sunny Deol’s hit Gadar: Ek Prem Katha, a couple was reunited following court’s intervention despite the girl’s parents having her remarried to separate them.
Prathamesh, a resident of North Gujarat fell in love with Prakruti who was from Kutch (names changed to protect their identity) and both got married in March earlier this year and stayed as a married couple in Kutch. But as the girl’s parents were opposed to the marriage, they fled to North Gujarat.
Prakruti’s parents traced them in their new abode, beat Prathamesh and forcibly took Prakruti home. Prathamesh filed a Habeas Corpus as the parents refused him to meet Prakruti. He also alleged in his petition that both were beaten up and were forced to sign a divorce deed.
He submitted to the court that he had filed an application with a local police station about this, but he was again beaten up and was forced to withdraw the application as well. He pleaded with the court to reunite him with his legally wedded wife.
The court ordered Prakruti to be present on December 19 where she told Justice Abhilasha Kumari and Justice BN Karia that she was beaten by her parents and was forced to sign on divorce deed. She also revealed she was forcibly married to another person but had returned to her parental home as she could not live in the new marriage. She confessed for her love for Prathamesh but told the court she was scared her parents would beat her again and may separate them again.
Prathamesh told the court both were adults and he wanted to spend the rest of his life with Prakruti as his wife. The court accepted his plea and allowed Prakruti to go with Prathamesh. The court also directed the police to provide protection to the couple and asked them to take action against the girl’s parents if they created trouble again
