Usha Gupta v. the State of Jharkhand
Case brief
What is this about?
The Single Judge dismissed the writ petition seeking a direction to trace the petitioner's kidnapped son. The court observed that the son appeared to have absconded after misappropriating collected toll money, suggesting the kidnapping FIR might be a maneuver. As a separate case regarding the amount was pending, the court dismissed this petition.
What did the court decide?
The petition for direction to trace the victim was dismissed. It is open to the petitioner to make her case before the learned court where the matter is pending.
