JUDGMENT
Kurian Joseph, J.
The petitioner, first respondent and Smt.Sulfath, her sister and
uncle are present. We also had the assistance of Smt.Sohara, the
counsel practicing before this Court. Smt.Sohara reports that she
talked to the parties for several hours. It is also submitted that
Smt.Sulfath has lived with the petitioner as wife for around a month and
hence she is not in a position to forget him and think of another life,
despite the emotionally charged conduct of her father, sister, uncle etc.
We also have inter-acted with Smt.Sulfath and the petitioner and his
father and uncle, who are present before this Court. Petitioner submits
that unto death they will not part and members of the family also
undertake that they will look after the petitioner and their daughter-in-
law, Smt.Sulfath. Smt.Sulfath being educated, matured and aged 23, in
view of her desire to go with the petitioner and also in view of the
background of their marriage and living together for around a month, we
permit Smt.Sulfath to go with the petitioner.
2. We direct the first respondent and members of the family not
to cause any harassment to the petitioner or Smt.Sulfath or other

members of the family of the petitioner. In the event of any such problem,
it will be open to the petitioner and members of his family to report the
same to the Superintendent of Police, Palakkad, in which case, necessary
assistance will be given to them.
3. Smt.Sulfath submits that her certificates and other personal
belongings are with her father. Learned counsel for the first respondent,
Sri.Sunny Mathew, submits that all such personal articles and other
belongings can be handed over to Smt.Sulfath through counsel.
Therefore, we direct Sri.U.K.Mohammed (first respondent) to hand over
the certificates and other personal articles of Smt.Sulfath to Sri.Sunny
Mathew, who shall hand over the same to Sri.M.G.Karthikeyan, learned
counsel appearing for Smt.Sulfath.
The Writ Petition is disposed of as above.
