We also advised the parents who were present to accept the factual situation even though it is not according to their wishes. Since the alleged detenue who is studying for B.Sc. stated that she is not under illegal custody, this habeas corpus petition is dismissed. Police is directed to see that protection is given to fourth respondent and detenue to go to their house. J.B.KOSHY JUDGE K.P.BALACHANDRAN JUDGE tks
