GSC NO. PO0056240600738 DATED 12.09.2024 VIDE ANNX-F. THIS PETITION, COMING ON FOR FRESH MATTERS, THIS DAY, ORDER WAS MADE THEREIN AS UNDER: CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE B M SHYAM PRASAD - 4 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:35466 WP No. 25956 of 2024 ORAL ORDER The petitioner and the applicant are married and they have a son between them who is aged five years. The petitioner [the husband] has the custody of the child with the applicant asserting that the petitioner has taken custody of the child from her acting under the guise of the interim orders granted by this Court on 20.09.2024 directing the respondents-police not to interfere with his custody of the child. Sri Mohammed Mujassim, the learned counsel for the petitioner, and Sri Abubacker Shafi, the learned counsel for the applicant [proposed seventh respondent] as also Smt K P Yashodha, a learned Additional Government Advocate, who is called upon to accept notice for the respondents, are heard for final disposal of the petition. The petitioner has called in question the Endorsement dated 12.09.2024 [Annexure-F] issued by the Station House Officer, Mandi Mohalla Women - 5 - HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:35466 WP No. 25956 of 2024 Police Station, Mysuru. The petitioner’s case is that this Endorsement is issued at the applicant’s instance to ensure that the petitioner is compelled to handover the custody of the child to the applicant. The petitioner, in support of the grievance against the endorsement, proposes to rely upon certain antecedent circumstances, and for the present purposes, it would suffice to observe that the dispute between the petitioner and the applicant is muddled with allegations of infidelity and the dispute otherwise is about the custody of the child. This dispute must be resolved by the jurisdictional Court, and this Court cannot embark upon such adjudication. Therefore the petition, leaving all contentions open, stands disposed of.
