1 CR.WP. 3186/2010 mnm IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL WRIT PETITION NO. 3186 OF 2010 Mr. Sayyed Hassan Mehdi ...Petitioner Vs. Mrs. Sahiba Banu Sayyed Hassan Mehdi & Anr. ...Respondents Mr. Shiva D. Patil for the Petitioner Mr. S.K. Chaturvedi a/w. Ms. Sima Jain i/b. M/s. Chaturvedi & Associates for Respondents 1 & 2 CORAM : SMT. ROSHAN DALVI, J. DATED : 12TH JANUARY, 2011 P.C. : 1. The Petitioner husband has challenged the order of interim maintenance dated 17 th April 2010 of the VI Family Court, Mumbai. The husband is admittedly a Diploma holder in Electrical Engineering. It is the case of the wife that he works as Electric Contractor. She has produced a receipt of his earning which was Rs.7.20 lakhs. The husband claims to be earning a salary. The husband has produced what he calls certain salary slips. These are computer printouts on pieces of paper signed with illegible signature bearing a rubber stamp of one Saaj Electrical. The affidavit of the signatory has not been filed. The signatory would have to be cross examined. A look 2 CR.WP. 3186/2010 at the so called salary slips show that they are fabricated. 2. The Advocate for the Respondent states that he is shown to have worked for 30 days in February 2010 and hence he contends, the documents are bogus. 3. The Petitioner husband claims to be earning Rs.3750/- as an Electrical Engineer. Those earnings are less than the earnings of a peon in current times. The interim maintenance granted is a most minimum amount that could be granted. 4. The Petitioner husband has married a second wife. He claims that his parents as well as his second wife are also dependent on him. It is not understood how he would maintain his parents as also his 2 nd wife from this meager income. 5. The order does not require any interference. 6. The Writ Petition completely lacks bona fides and is dismissed. (SMT. ROSHAN DALVI, J.)
