CORAM:HON'BLE MRS. JUSTICE ANITA CHAUDHRY
Present: Both the petitioners in person with Mr. G.P. Singh, Advocate.
ANITA CHAUDHRY , J(ORAL)
Manpreet Kumari and Dilpreet Singh, the petitioners before me, claim themselves to be major. They have pleaded that they have married against the wishes of respondent Nos. 4 to 6 and seek protection to their life and liberty. They apprehend danger from respondent nos. 4 to 6. They have placed on record marriage certificate and photographs, Annexures P-3 and P- 4. The petitioners have submitted a representation dated 21.09.2015, Annexure P-5 to respondent no.2.
Without commenting upon the legality of the marriage and entering upon an exercise to evaluate the evidentiary value of the documents placed on the file, I dispose of the petition with directions to respondent no.2 to decide the representation of the petitioners, Annexure P-5 within a period of one month and grant the protection, if any threat to their life and liberty is perceived. It is made clear that this order shall not be taken to protect the petitioners from legal action for violation of law if any committed by them.
