The petitioners are a young couple who have got married recently under the Special Marriage Act. They have come to this court with this application for anticipatory bail apprehending that the parents of the second petitioner/bride has filed some complaint alleging commission of non-bailable offences by the petitioners. 2. The petitioners submit that they are legally married and they are entitled to live peacefully without any threat or hindrance from anyone. 3. The learned Public Prosecutor submits that the apprehension of the petitioners is absolutely baseless. It is true that the father of the second petitioner who is a woman aged about 23 years had filed a complaint alleging that his daughter had eloped with the first petitioner. The request of the father was that it may be ascertained whether they are legally married and are living as husband and wife. That verification has already been done. In connection with that legitimate request of the father, the police had tried to ascertain whether the petitioners B.A.No.522/08 2 are legally married. It has now been confirmed that the petitioners are legally married. The father of the second petitioner specifically wanted that no case need be registered against the petitioners. The parents are interested to ascertain whether she is legally married because of parental affection for their daughter. That having been confirmed, father has no grievance. The police do not want to do anything with the petitioners now. 4. These submissions of the learned Public Prosecutor are recorded. The apprehension of the petitioners is found to be absolutely baseless. This petition is in these circumstances dismissed as agreed.
