They have identified her. We have even suggested the petitioner to talk to her mother, but she refused. In such circumstances, the petitioner is permitted to go to her in-laws house and the Police concerned is directed to give all protection to her. 2. This petition has been filed by the petitioner to challenge the FIR vide C. R. No. 117 of 2008 lodged by respondent No.2 under Sections 363 2 and 366-A of the Indian Penal Code. The petitioner submits that this FIR should be quashed as she has gone out of her own free will and has married respondent No.3. But the learned Public Prosecutor submits that on the date of committing of offence the petitioner was admittedly minor. Therefore, the case needs to be investigated. For this reason, we do not find a case for quashing of the FIR. 3. The writ petition is, accordingly, disposed of. 4. Any observation made by us in this order will have no bearing on the culpability or otherwise of respondent No.3 in the FIR referred above. Sd/- (BILAL NAZKI, J.) Sd/- (A. A. KUMBHAKONI, J.)
