(Oral): In sequel to order dated 24.11.2011, the Kazi of Jamma Maszid, Bilaspur is present. He has also produced the register maintained by him to prove that all the marriages solemnized by him are duly registered. We have an interactive session with the Kazi to see whether all the formalities as required under the Islamic law/rites were performed or not. According to Kazi, he has put certain questions to the petitioners before solemnizing their marriage. The marriage was solemnized by the petitioners on 20.10.2011. The Court has directed the parties to have an interactive session with each other from time to time to restore normalcy in the two families. 2. Mr. Hamender Chandel, learned counsel for the petitioners submits that since it is an inter religion marriage, an F.I.R. has also been registered by the father of the girl at Police Station Sadar, District Hamirpur. 3. We are of the considered view that since the marriage has already been solemnized on 20.10.2011, the F.I.R. No. 241/2011, dated 4th November, 2011, Police Station Sadar, District Hamirpur, registered against the petitioners will not serve any purpose. Consequently, the same is quashed. The petition stands 3 disposed of, so also the pending application(s), if any. (Justice Kurian Joseph), Chief Justice. (Justice Rajiv Sharma), Judge. December 07, 2011. (bhupender)
