HEMALEKHA ORAL ORDER (PER: HON'BLE MR. VIBHU BAKHRU, CHIEF JUSTICE) 1. The complainant has filed the present complaint alleging willful disobedience of the order dated 07.06.2023 passed by the Principal Civil Judge, Bengaluru in M.C.No.377/2020. 2. The dispute between the parties essentially relates to the interim custody of the minor child, who is a special child. In terms of the order dated 02.06.2026, the child is now admitted to Asha International School Pune. The grievance of the complainant essentially stemmed from the unilateral removal of the child from the said school. Prima facie, we find that the accused has been reluctant to comply with the orders. However, considering that the issue relates to her minor child, we do not consider it apposite to - 3 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:28175-DB CCC No. 56 of 2025 proceed further with the contempt petition. Particularly, since the child has been relocated to Pune, where the complainant resides. 3. The complainant shall have interim rights to visit the child as already directed by the Court. In the event that the accused prevents such visitation, the complainant is at liberty to file a fresh complaint. 4. The complaint is closed with the aforesaid observations.
