We notice that the prayer raised in this writ petition is for a writ of habeas corpus directing the first respondent to produce the minor child of the petitioner before this Court. We notice that the pleading of the petitioner is specifically that an order of visitation has been passed by the Family Court which is sought to be implemented through this writ petition. We are of the opinion that it is for the petitioner to seek implementation of the orders passed by the Family Court in accordance with law. In the facts and circumstances of the instant case, the writ petition seeking a writ of habeas corpus is not maintainable. The writ petition therefore fails, the same is accordingly dismissed without prejudice to the rights of the petitioner to take appropriate steps in accordance with law and leaving open all the contentions of the parties.
