Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court held that the complaint alleging kidnapping under Section 363 IPC was unfounded as both appellants, being adults, voluntarily married without coercion. The Court set aside the High Court's conditions requiring the husband to deposit money and for the wife to record a statement under Section 161 Cr.P.C., finding them unnecessary. Consequently, the complaint filed by the brother of the wife was quashed, affirming the couple's right to marry and live together.
