HC DENIES COP PROTECTION TO INTERFAITH COUPLE
Hindustan Times Mumbai|December 12, 2024
The Bombay high court on Tuesday denied police protection to an interfaith couple so they could continue their live-in relationship, saying while the girl was free to choose between living with her family or her partner, the state could not be expected to furnish to their personal choice.

MUMBAI:

"You want police to be deployed outside your house just because you want to continue living together? Give us a more feasible solution," the court told the petitioner, a 20-year-old Muslim man, who sought his 19-year-old Hindu partner's release from "unlawful detention" at a government women's home in Chembur. The petition alleges that societal and familial pressure by those opposed to their interfaith relationship had resulted in a gross violation of their fundamental rights.
