Judgment
Heard.
This petition is for seeking protection of life and liberty of
petitioners, who alleged to have married against the wishes of respondents
No. 4 to 7, parents and relatives of petitioner No.1.
On the request of counsel for the parties, the case was kept
pending and opportunity was allowed to the parties to have a talk. When
the case was again taken up, learned counsel for the parties have apprised
that the petitioners and private respondents could not reach any consensus.
However, learned counsel for the private respondents
submits that he has instructed to make statement that private respondents
will not interfere in the lives and liberty of the petitioners and in their
matrimonial life.
In view of submission of learned counsel for the private
respondents, but without expressing any opinion on the validity of marriage
of petitioners, petition is disposed of with direction to respondent No.2-
Senior Superintendent of Police, Hoshiarpur to look into the representation
dated 11.01.2017 (Annexure P-5) and take appropriate action in accordance
with law, if need so arise.
However, it is made clear that petitioner No.2-Arun Kumar is
minor and nothing contained in this order shall be read as opinion of this
Court regarding the validity of alleged marriage of the petitioners or will
effect any other civil or criminal proceedings instituted against them.
