Manjushree was missing from village Therla Tq-Patoda since afternoon of 21st October 2009 and hence the compliant came to be lodged on 25th October 2009 against Kishor and present applicants. 4. Apart from these applications, Kishor has also filed criminal application No.3943/2009 for quashing of the FIR. Kishor has contended that he and Manjushree got married and he has also produced marriage certificate, a notice, which was displayed on the board of Mangal Karyalaya where the said marriage took place on 23.10.2009 and photograph of marriage ceremony, with the application. {3} 5.

This statement of Manjushree, daughter of the complainant, defuses the entire compliant. In the premise, the applications deserve to be allowed. 6.
