1 IGP No.1_2010 jsn IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY ORDINARY ORIGINAL CIVIL JURISDICTION INDIAN GUARDINSHIP PETITION NO.1 OF 2010 Leon Oscar Pinto and Celestine Malita Pinto – Petitioners V/s Missionaries of Charity, Mumbai – Respondents Mr. Rakesh Kapoor for Petitioner. Mr. O. Harindran for Respondent. CORAM : MRS. ROSHAN DALVI, J. DATE : 25 rd April, 2012. P.C. :- 1. The minor Tiara Osheen Pinto came to be given under the Guardianship of the Petitioners herein under the order dated 13th January,2010. She was taken to Muscat, Sultanate of Oman. She lived with the Petitioners from July, 2010 to December, 2010. 2. Unfortunately her union with the Petitioners remained unhappy and unfruitful. She could not cope with the family of the Petitioners including their biological daughter who has certain medical problems. The follow up report of the Social Worker of the counselling agency who had made Home Study Report at the time of giving minor child in guardianship shows the specific characteristics and behaviour of the child after which was given in guardianship demonstrating how the entire effort has failed. 3. The psychological assessment report by the Centre of 2 IGP No.1_2010 Psychological Consultancy in Mumbai shows that the child may do better in a different environment. 4. The child has been returned to Missionaries of Charity, the agency who gave her in guardianship of Petitioners since December,2010. The child is reported to be adapting to the environment in the agency to be able to be given for adoption in future. 5. Consequently, though the initial bond has failed, the child may have a second chance in life. Hence the Petitioners application to be relieved of the guardianship of the child and to revoke the order of appointing the Petitioners as guardian of minor child Tiara deserves to be granted. 6. The guardianship order dated 13th January, 2010 is, therefore, revoked. ( ROSHAN DALVI, J.)
