ORDER : C.Praveen Kumar, J. Heard Mr.Suryadattu Veda representing Ms.Nimmagadda Revathi, learned counsel for the petitioner. Also heard Mr.Y.N.Vivekananda, learned Government Pleader attached to the office of learned Additional Advocate General-II, for the respondents 1 to 5. 2. The petitioner, who is the father of the alleged detenu, filed the present writ petition, seeking issuance of writ in the nature of habeas corpus, for production of his daughter viz., Chakali Ranga Lakshmi, aged 31 years, alleged to have been detained by the 6th respondent. 3. On 05.03.2021, while issuing notice, this Court directed the respondents to get the 164 Cr.P.C., statement of the alleged detenu recorded before the nearest Magistrate Court and produce the said statement before this court on 18.03.2021. However, on 18.03.2021, the said statement was not placed before the Court though it was recorded on 15.03.2021. Hence, it was adjourned to today. 4. Mr.Y.N.Vivekananda, learned Government Pleader attached to the office of learned Additional Advocate General-II, placed on record the 164 Cr.P.C. statement of the alleged detenu, which was recorded by the Judicial First Class Magistrate, Alur on 15.03.2021. 5. A perusal of the said statement shows that as her parents were trying to perform her marriage against her will, she left the house and married 6th respondent on 16.12.2020 at Seetharama Temple situated at Kallur estate, Kurnool District. Thereafter, on 18.12.2020, both of them met the Superintendent of Police, Kurnool and, in turn, the Superintendent of Police entrusted the matter to the Deputy Superintendent of Police, Adoni. The Deputy Superintendent of Police informed the S.I. of Police, Nandavaram to call the parents of the alleged detenu and inform them about the incident and if required, to counsel them. It is stated that though the S.I. of Police called her parents and gave counselling, the writ petitioner, who is the father of the alleged detenu, gave a complaint against the 6th respondent. But, the said complaint was not received by the S.I. of Police as already a case was registered on the complaint of the daughter of the writ petitioner. The contents of the statement given on oath would disclose that she is living happily with her husband and is not facing any problems. 6. From the above, it is clear that she intends to live with her husband, who is the 6th respondent herein.
