Sr. No.100 Supp. IN THE HIGH COURT OF JAMMU & KASHMIR AND LADAKH AT SRINAGAR WP(C) 339/2025 CM(781/2025) MARIA RASHID AND ANOTHER …Petitioner(s)/appellant(s) Through: Mr. Shabir Ahmad Shah, Advocate Vs. UNION TERRITORY OF J AND K (HOME) AND ORS ...Respondent(s) Through: CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE JAVED IQBAL WANI, JUDGE O R D E R 21.02.2025 Upon coming of this matter for consideration, in the first instance, petitioner 1 was examined by the Court in order to ascertain the veracity of facts pleaded in the petition, as well as the marriage claimed to have been solemnized by petitioner 1 with petitioner 2. The petitioner 1, however, upon asking of the Court about the solemnization of marriage, gave contradictory and conflicting details about the solemnization of the marriage. Initially, she stated that the Nikah ceremony was performed by her in person with petitioner 2 yet, subsequently, would submit that she was represented in the Nikah ceremony by a Wakeel, whose name, when asked by the Court, was not correctly revealed. The petitioner 2, upon being asked about the solemnization of marriage by him with petitioner 1, too gave conflicting and contradictory versions about the solemnization of marriage. Junaid Ayoub I attest to the accuracy and authenticity of this document Under these circumstances, this Court is not convinced about the factum of the marriage/Nikah claimed to have been entered into by the petitioners and is, therefore, not inclined to pass any interim order thereof, including the order of protection sought in the petition. Accordingly, the petition stands dismissed. (JAVED IQBAL WANI) JUDGE SRINAGAR 21.02.2025 Junaid Junaid Ayoub I attest to the accuracy and authenticity of this document
