Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court quashed the complaint of kidnapping against appellant No.1 under Section 363 IPC, holding that both appellants are adults who married voluntarily without coercion. The Court found no necessity for the conditions imposed by the High Court regarding financial deposit and recording of statements under Section 161 Cr.P.C. The appeal was allowed, and the complaint was dismissed as the marriage was consensual and the couple was living together happily.
