V.Ravi Chandran vs Union Of India & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed a habeas corpus petition filed by Dr. V. Ravi Chandran for the custody of his minor son Adithya, who had been missing for over two years. The Court noted that a joint custody order was previously established by the New York State Supreme Court, which required both parents to keep each other informed about the child's whereabouts. The Court ultimately held that the custody of Adithya should be granted to the petitioner, emphasizing the importance of adhering to the existing custody arrangements and the welfare of the child.
