(ORAL) The prayer in this petition is for issuance of a direction in the nature of habeas corpus to release Ms.Rekha, whom the petitioner claims to be his legally wedded wife. The petitioner further alleges that since it was an inter-caste marriage, respondents No.1 to 4 who are family members of said Rekha, have refused to approve the said marriage and have forcibly abducted his wife. Notice of motion was issued and in deference thereto, respondents No.1 to 3 are present. Learned State counsel represent respondents No.4 and 5. Ms.Rekha daughter of respondent No.1 is also present in Court. On a specific query by the Court, she has denied that she ever performed marriage with the petitioner and has also refused to accompany him. She has categorically stated that she wants to live with her parents only. In view of the above-stated stand taken by the alleged detenue, the desired writ cannot be issued. Dismissed.
