Alleging that the petitioner's wife is under the illegal custody of her mother and brother, this writ petition is filed. Pursuant to the notice issued by this Court, the parties along with the alleged detenue appeared before us. We interacted with the alleged detenue. She is a major. She admitted that she married the petitioner but she is not willing to go with him. She has already initiated proceedings before the family court for declaring the marriage null and void. We interacted with the petitioner also. Since the alleged detenue submitted that she is not under illegal custody of her mother and she does not want to go with the petitioner, the writ petition is dismissed. This judgment will not stand in the way of further proceedings being continued in the family court. The family court will dispose of the matter in terms of the proceedings in this case.
