She told that marriage was performed on 29.6.2004 in a temple (Brahmasthan) and from the wedlock she had given birth to a female child in the month of March, 2007 who is in her lap. She has informed the Court that she has been residing with her husband and leading a happy conjugal life and it is not a fact that her husband had kidnapped her. She also informed the Court that her grand-father had instituted this criminal case against her husband and his relatives on false and incorrect allegation. 4. The learned Advocate of the petitioners submitted that the petitioners, who are said to be the husband and relatives of the husband of the victim girl Shanti Kumari, have filed this application for quashing of the first information report of Andharatharhi P.S.

It has further been submitted by the learned Advocate that as per the statement of the victim girl Shanti Kumari orally made before this Court, she had performed marriage with the petitioner no.1 with her free will and consent and presently, both the couples are leading a happy conjugal life and, therefore, in the interest of the victim girl, the first information report as well as charge-sheet of the abovementioned case should be quashed.

He further submitted that the statement of the victim girl shows that the case was instituted on false and fabricated allegation. 6. The learned Additional Public Prosecutor appearing on behalf of the State submitted that the victim girl has stated before this Court that she had performed marriage with petitioner no.1 with her free will and consent and the allegation levelled in the first information report is incorrect, as such he has got no objection if this application for quashing is allowed. 7. In view of the fact that the statement of the victim girl falsifies the entire allegation levelled in the first information report and the statement of the victim girl establishes that she had performed marriage with petitioner no.1 with her free will and consent and her appearance shows that she is leading a happy conjugal life besides this fact that she had got a female child from petitioner no.1, I am of the view that in the interest of the victim girl, the first information report of Andharatharhi P.S. Case No. 51 of 2004 alongwith charge-sheet No.11/2007 should be quashed and further proceeding of the said case bearing G.R. No. 453 of 2004 should be ordered to be dropped. 8.
