Heard Mr.P.Athimoola Pandian, the learned counsel for the petitioner and Mrs.S.Devasena, the learned Government Advocate (Crl.side) appearing for the State. 3. The petitioner got married herself with one Maniarasan and she apprehends life threat from the respondents 3 to 9. The reasons stated by the petitioner is that she had married on her own accord without the acceptance of her father and other relatives for the said marriage. No doubt it is true that the petitioner is aged about 26 years, since her date of birth is 05.08.1984 as evident from the transfer certificate produced by her. Similarly, her husband's transfer certificate would go https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 2 to show that his date of birth is 15.06.1986 and he is also a major person. The marriage solemnised in between them at New Washermenpet, Chennai-81 and the said marriage has also been duly registered before the Marriage Registrar of Royapuram in Serial No.27/11. All these documents produced would go to show that the petitioner was married with Maniarasan lawfully and the respondents have no say in the matter. The apprehension in the mind of the petitioner that the respondents 3 to 9 would harm her owning to the marriage with the Maniarasan, has some force and therefore, I have no hesitation to pass an order of police protection to the life and limb of the petitioner and her husband. Accordingly, the respondents 1 and 2 are directed to give police protection to the life and limb of the petitioner and her husband. With the above direction, this petition is ordered accordingly.
