[Order of the Court was made by M.M.SUNDRESH, J.] The petitioner has filed this petition seeking production of her minor sons and to hand over their custody to her.
2.This is an extension of the dispute between the petitioner and her husband. The petitioner also filed G.W.O.P., which is pending. Now, one child is with the petitioner and the other two children are with the husband. According to the petitioner, the third respondent is none other than her brother-in-law and is taking care of the detenues. The conciliation efforts failed both before this Court and before the Mediation Centre. In such view of the matter, we do not find any illegal detention of the detenues.
3.In view of the above, this Habeas Corpus Petition is closed. It is made clear that this order will not have any impact on the pending proceedings, including the one under Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 and this order will not have any bearing on the orders passed already and also the pending proceedings.
To:
1.The Superintendent of Police, Thoothukudi District.
2.The Inspector of Police, South Police Station, Thoothukudi District.
