In this regard, the Court stressed that while residing together under the same roof and having three children, there was complete and implicit faith that the two spouses reposed in each other.
“Therefore, if the husband were to – casually, ask his wife to sign a particular document, she would unhesitatingly sign the same without even enquiring as to what is the document on which her signatures are being obtained. She would not even care to remember the fact that she has actually signed a document on the instructions of her husband,” the Bench explained.
The Court, therefore, concluded that the appellant misled his wife and contrived to obtain her signatures on the summons.
