Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the Family Court's order under Sections 7, 9, and 17 of the Guardian and Wards Act, 1890, affirming the interim injunction against the appellant preventing interference with the custody of his minor children. The Court emphasized that the welfare of the children is paramount in custody matters, and the appellant's claims regarding the respondents' fitness as guardians were insufficient to vacate the injunction. The appeal was dismissed, maintaining the status quo of the children's custody with the respondents.
