Today, Mr.S.Ahmed Abdul Khadar, Inspector of Police, Othakadai Police Station, has filed a counter.

It is the case of the defacto complainant that she is related to the petitioner and they were in love and that this petitioner had promised to marry her. But, went back on the promise.

In the counter filed by the Inspector of Police, it is stated that the petitioner is doing P.H.D., in the Agricultural College, Madurai.He had given enough time to the defacto complainant to produce any material to show that the petitioner was in love with her. After lodging the complaint, the defacto complainant did not co-operate with the police in the investigation. That apart, the Inspector of Police has also made enquiries in and around the area as well as in the place, where the petitioner is working. He is https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ not able to gather any material to corroborate the version of the defacto complainant.

The learned counsel for the petitioner submits that the defacto complainant is aged about 40 years and the petitioner is just 27 years and that she wanted to somehow trap him into matrimonial relationship for extraneous reasons.
