~~~~~~~~~~~ Petitioner alleges that his fiancee, the 18 year old daughter of the 3rd respondent, is being illegally detained by her father to prevent her from continuing her relationship with the petitioner. He says that complaining of illegal detention he filed a petition before the 1st respondent and that even thereafter the detenue is not liberated. Therefore, this Writ Petition is filed with the prayer for issue of writ of habeas corpus. 2. Prima facie, the custody of the daughter and that too of an 18 year old girl, cannot, without anything more, be said as a case of illegal detention. Apart from making the allegations of his relationship with the alleged detenue and that she is in illegal detention, in this Writ petition the petitioner has failed to substantiate his allegations. In such circumstances, this Court feels that it will not be justified in issuing any direction against the respondents.
W.P.(Crl) No.218/2014 2 Therefore, we do not propose to entertain the Writ Petition. Accordingly, the Writ Petition is dismissed.
