The Delhi High Court has dissolved a marriage between a Hindu couple, stating that the wife filed a false criminal complaint against her husband, causing him immense mental cruelty and agony.
A bench of Justices Vipin Sanghi and Jasmeet Singh declared that the false allegations by the wife amounted to clear and categorical character assassination of the husband and his family.
The court noted that the husband had to make 30-40 visits to the police station because of the complaint. These visits caused significant mental harassment and trauma, as he constantly feared a case might be registered against him, leading to his potential arrest.
The High Court observed that the wife’s unsubstantiated criminal complaint against the husband and his family inflicted severe mental cruelty and agony, leading to the decision to grant the husband’s plea for divorce.
Initially, the husband filed a petition seeking the restitution of conjugal rights after the wife suddenly left him. The marriage was solemnized in May 2008. Nearly two years after leaving the matrimonial home and three years into the marriage, the wife filed a complaint with the Crime Against Women (CAW) cell. She alleged dowry demands, abuse, physical and mental torture, and harassment, but all these allegations remained unsubstantiated.
