got pregnant in December, 2005. She said that the applicants and her husband asked her to terminate the pregnancy but she said, she refused to do so. She said, thereafter they started making false and immoral allegations against her and they again sent her back to her mother’s house at Beed. She said, in the meantime, she delivered a boy child. She said, all the applicants on 06.06.2008 visited her at Beed and had quarrel and fight there with her. She said that on 11.06.2008, she made complaint to Police Station at Beed, but there she was told that she should obtain a letter from Special Cell for Women and Children at Beed. She said, she could not get such report from the Special Cell and so the police did not take any action on her complaint. Therefore, she said that she lodged her complaint to the Court directly. 4. The applicants came to this Court because they received summons from the Court. It is their case that the complaint did not disclose any case against them. No doubt, the complaint is not happily worded, but it could not be encyclopedia of all the facts. It is true that the complaint does not attribute a specific role to each of the applicants, but for such lapse, the complaint cannot be dismissed as false. It is also true that the complaint is lodged rather belatedly. It is clear from the complaint that the complainant had come back to Beed about two years before making of the complaint and yet the complaint was lodged on 16.08.2008. But, this delay cannot be said to be fatal to the case. In a case of this nature, a married woman would not hastily take decision which would jeopardize her marriage. Making a criminal complaint against husband and in-laws would certainly doom her prospects of getting honourable settlement or restitution of conjugal rights. Therefore, it seems, the complainant was making efforts to persuade her in-laws and her husband to treat her properly, but it seems nothing worked.
