NO. 106 OF 2007 = = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 19th day of July, 2007. J U D G M E N T This Transfer Petition is filed to transfer O.P.376/06 pending before the Family Court, Kozhikode to the Family Court, Kannur. The main ground alleged is that if she comes to Kozhikode, husband and his henchmen will attack her and she is not in a position to travel to Kozhikode on each and every occasion. It is resisted by the other side in the form of argument and by making available documents for perusal and I found that it is the other way. The learned counsel for the respondent brought to my notice a complaint filed by the present respondent against the father-in-law on the ground that father-in-law along with the mother-in-law came to the office where he is working and they want to speak something to him and when he went out he was abused and the father- in-law caught hold of his color and threatened him to Tr.P.C. NO. 106 OF 2007 -:2:- withdraw the divorce petition filed by him. So the apprehension that the family members of the husband will do away with the petitioner does not appear to be correct in the light of the conduct of the in-laws. Similarly, I am informed that in a petition for maintenance filed by the wife it is specifically stated that she is staying at Bangalore. So, whether the case is tried at Kannur or Kozhikode it is irrelevant because she has to come from Bangalore and not from Kannur. Further, the distance from Kannur to Kozhikode is not that much and it is not an inaccessible place and it is on the Highway itself. Therefore, sufficient grounds do not exist for transfer of the case. Therefore, the Tr.P.C. is devoid of merits and it is dismissed. M.N. KRISHNAN, JUDGE. ul/-
