Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court reversed the High Court's order regarding the custody of two children, directing that the custody remain with the father, the petitioner, based on the children's expressed wishes and their established living situation. The Court emphasized the need for the mother to gradually rebuild her relationship with the children rather than forcibly taking them away, which could cause trauma. The decision was influenced by the children's comfort and stability with their father, as well as the mother's lack of contact over the years.
