'Nobody Has Any Right To Interfere in Their Peaceful Married Life': Jammu and Kashmir High Court Grants Protection to Muslim Couple After They Produce Dentist Prescription and Aadhaar To Confirm Age
The high court bench of Justice Moksha Khajuria Kazmi said that nobody, including the police, has any right to interfere in their peaceful married life since both the husband and wife are major and have married of their own will.
The Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh High Court recently granted protection to a Muslim couple who moved the court apprehending threats from their relatives and others after marriage. To prove that the woman is a major, the couple's counsel placed reliance on the copy of a prescription issued by a dental surgeon who certified her to be 45 years old, as reflected in her Aadhaar Card. The high court bench of Justice Moksha Khajuria Kazmi said that nobody, including the police, has any right to interfere in their peaceful married life since both the husband and wife are major and have married of their own will. The couple has approached the high court seeking protection. In their plea, the couple had stated that they solemnised their marriage in accordance with the Shariat law and as per their own will and volition.
