JUDGMENT
ANTONY DOMINIC, J.
The petitioner has filed this Writ Petition alleging that her husband, Binoy Viswas, is missing since 12.5.2014. According to her, their marriage was solemnized on 8.6.2008 and in that wedlock, they have a child, who is now three years old. It is also stated that her husband is employed in U.A.E. and that he had come on leave to Kerala on 12.4.2014. It is stated that, while so, he went missing from 12.5.2014 and according to the petitioner, he is now in the illegal confinement of respondents 1 and 2. It is on this basis, this Writ Petition is filed with the prayer for issue of a writ of habeas corpus to set the detenue at liberty.
2. When the Writ Petition came up for admission on 6.6.2014, this Court directed the learned Government Pleader to obtain instructions. Accordingly, instructions have been obtained, which show that the petitioner's husband had a love affair with the w.p.crl.238/14 - :
2. :- 1st respondent and he eloped with her. The learned Government Pleader further states that a complaint was made by the 2nd respondent, her mother, alleging that her daughter is missing and that acting upon the said complaint, Crime No.1001/2014 was registered by the 3rd respondent. It is also stated that recently her husband had rang up the 2nd respondent and disclosed that he is now back in U.A.E.
3. Evidently the petitioner's husband disappeared only on account of his love affair with the 1st respondent and in any event, is now back in U.A.E. where he is employed. These facts therefore prove that the allegation of the petitioner that her husband is illegally detained by respondents 1 and 2 is not correct. In such circumstances, we cannot entertain this Writ Petition with the prayer for issue of a writ of habeas corpus. The Writ Petition fails and is dismissed.
