After a 12-year-old girl expressed her desire to live with her father, the Delhi High Court has transferred her custody to her father from that of her mother, who has been granted visitation rights.

Before deciding an application filed by the girl’s mother, the judge spoke to the child in chamber.

“The child is mature and fairly intelligent; her thoughts are coherent and consistent,” said Justice Indermeet Kaur in an order delivered last week and made available to Monday.

The child’s parents, still legally married, live separately.
