The bench, therefore, noted that though the wife made several serious allegations against her husband, they were not substantiated and the complaint filed against her father-in-law had also resulted in acquittal.
The judges said that these two aspects can be taken as acts of cruelty by appellant (wife) upon the respondent (husband) and, therefore, there is no reason to interfere with the judgment of the Family Court.
“The marriage is solemn relation and its purity must be maintained for a healthy society. Thus, we see no reason to interfere with the impugned judgment and decree,” the Court said.
The appeal was, therefore, dismissed.
