A Gorakhpur woman asked for divorce three days after marriage, claiming her husband confessed he was “physically incapable.” A medical report allegedly confirmed he “cannot become a father,” leading to a police-mediated settlement.
The Madras High Court ruled that making unproven sexual allegations against a husband and his father causes mental cruelty and can be valid grounds for seeking divorce under the law.
A woman approached the Delhi High Court alleging that her husband and in-laws created a ruckus, filing a contempt petition against them. However, the Court found that she had violated Family Court orders herself and had instigated the incident. As a result, the Court dismissed her plea and imposed a Rs.50,000 fine on her.
