Upon the petition being filed, the parties have been produced before the Court. The Court had an in-chamber interaction with the following persons:- Shishupal, Shiv Kumar, Shiv Nand, Savitri and Seema. 6. It appears from the interaction with Sh. Shishupal that he is of cogent mind and is fully able to take his own decisions. He has expressed various grievances against his son Shiv Kumar and his wife Savitri, who is supporting Shiv Kumar. The wife, Mrs. Savitri, wants her husband to live with her. However, he does not wish to accompany his wife. 7. The disputes also appear to be about movable and immovable assets. The present petition is basically for habeas corpus for production of Sh. Shishupal. He has been produced and since he does not wish to accompany his wife, no orders in respect thereof can be passed by this Court. 8. However, there appears to be a possibility that the parties can resolve their other disputes, as Ms. Seema, who is the widow of the third son, Shiv Karan, also has certain grievances and has filed certain suits, which are pending in the Karkardooma Court. There are certain criminal complaints lodged by the parties against each other. 9. In view thereof, the parties, by consent, are referred to Mediation under the aegis of Delhi High Court, Mediation and Conciliation Centre. A mediator may be appointed for attempting resolution of all the disputes between the parties. All the parties shall appear before the Delhi High Court, Mediation and Conciliation Centre on 28th January, 2025. All the parties agree not to proceed with the criminal cases which have been filed by them against each other. This is a digitally signed order.
