Whether Reporters of local papers may be allowed to see the judgment? 2. To be referred to the Reporters or not? 3. Whether the judgment should be reported in the Digest? Present: Mr.K.S.Hissowal, Advocate, for the petitioner. ***** RANJIT SINGH, J. The petitioner has come with somewhat detesting and unheard prayer through the present petition under Section 482 Cr.P.C. A girl, who is married and has children, has left the matrimonial home initially to come to her parents. The parents, being worried on account of her conduct, naturally would have been interested to settle their daughter in the matrimonial home. Rather then listening to them, the petitioner left her parental house as well and has admittedly started living with a boy. Not only that, she has now shown the audacity to approach this Court to seek protection for herself and for the boy with whom she is living without there being any apprehension or threat ever been advanced. Which husband or which parents would not feel agitated on such a conduct depicted by a girl. She has left her matrimonial home and children and started living with stranger by having illicit relations and now is seeking protection for this illegal relationship. Criminal Misc.-M No.36239 of 2011 (O&M) : 2 : Counsel appearing for the petitioner ought to have realised the implication of the prayer made in the petition, before filing such type of petition. Would he wish to ask for perpetuating illegality being committed by the petitioner, who has approached this court for protection? Prayer is unacceptable and is so dismissed with costs of ` 5,000/- to be deposited in the accounts of Legal Services Authority, Punjab. At this stage, counsel seeks permission to withdraw this petition. This prayer is also declined. December 01, 2011 ( RANJIT SINGH ) ramesh JUDGE
