JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) The annulment of the
marriage by the husband was sought on the
ground that the wife had already been married
and she had admitted such a matrimonial status
to him. The petitioner s father also said that his
daughter-in-law had admitted that she had already
been married. This evidence was discarded
by the trial Court as unworthy of acceptance
since there was no proof of such admission.
The corroborative fact urged by the husband
was that she refused to consummate marriage
and she was not prepared to subject herself
to virginity test. This, in my view, will not
lend presumption to the alleged fact that the
person could have married again. The petition
is sought on the ground the condition of valid
marriage having been violated and hence, the
petitioner was entitled to a decree of annulment
of marriage, I am afraid the view cannot be different
from how it has been approached by the
trial Court.
(2.) I find no reason to interfere with the decision.
I confirm the decree and dismiss the appeal.;
