The petitioners submit, they are husband and wife. Initially, they executed Exhibit P1 agreement to live together as husband and wife. Later, they have got married under the provisions of the Special Marriage Act, it is submitted. When the first respondent started interfering with their living together, this Writ Petition was filed. 2. There was an interim order by this Court not to interfere with their marital life. If the petitioners are living as husband and wife, even if there is some defect in their marriage, police have no authority to interfere. Therefore, this Court has rightly directed the police not to interfere with their living together. In view of the said order, no further orders are required in this Writ Petition. Accordingly, it is disposed of. K.BALAKRISHNAN NAIR, JUDGE. M.C.HARI RANI, JUDGE. dsn
