According to the petitioner, the detenue went to meet her friend on 23.8.2011 in the morning around 7.00 a.m., but she did not return home. Therefore, his son, V.A.Prabhu preferred a complaint before the 1st respondent police on the same day. Inspite of diligent search made by them, they could not trace out her. Therefore, the petitioner has filed the present Habeas Corpus Petition for production of her daughter. 2. At the time of hearing the matter today, the detenue appeared in person and she categorically stated that she is a major and she has already married the fourth respondent and their marriage has also been registered in the Sub-Registrar's https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 2 Office. She expressed her unwillingness to go with her father/the petitioner. Further, she stated that since she got married to the fourth respondent, she wants to go only with the fourth respondent/husband. The brother of the detenue was also present in the Court at the time of the statement being given by the detenue. 3. In view of the above fact, since the detenue is a major, recording her statement, the Habeas Corpus Petition is closed as nothing survives for consideration.
