MOHITE, J. DATED : 7th March, 2008. P.C. P.C. P.C. 1. Rule. By consent, rule made returnable forthwith. 2. This is a writ petition filed by one Abdul Kadar Mohd. Shaikh who is the father of one Sayyad Abdul Kadar Shaikh. The son of the petitioner is being tried for an offence punishable under Section-366 of the I.P.C. In this petition, the petitioner impugns order passed on an application made by the I.O. for remand of the girl Ashiyabi Amir Aaga to the Supdt. Mahila Sudhar Griha Sawantwadi for proper care and maintenance of the girl till further order. The allegation against the accused is that he had kidnapped the said girl Ashiyabi who is said to be minor less than 18 years of age. It is an admitted position that it is not the contention of the petitioner that his son married the said Ashiyabi. The learned counsel fairly contends :2: that there is no averment about any such marriage having taken place between the petitioner’s son and the said girl. It is therefore, clear that the petitioner is stranger to the girl. An application made by such a person cannot be entertained. It is significant that neither the accused nor girl have preferred any petition against the said impugned order. Hence, petition is summarily rejected. (R.S.MOHITE, J.)
