The Madhya Pradesh High Court recently said that a mother tutoring a child against her own father is a serious matter and amounts to cruelty to the man, Bar&Bench has reported.
The court said so while granting divorce to a man whose wife had filed multiple criminals cases against him and his family members and also prevented him from meeting their minor daughter.
“Wife crossed all barriers in levelling allegations against husband and his family members,” the court said. Though Court declined to comment on the merits of the cases filed by both the husband and wife against each other, as they are still pending.
From the record, the court found that when a girl was born to the couple in 2014, the wife didn’t allow the husband to meet the child and he had to file a civil suit for the custody of the minor child. Despite the Family Court directing the wife to allow her husband to meet the child, she refused to comply, the court noted.
“In present case also wife has tried to keep away husband from minor daughter and tutored her to speak against her own father. This is serious matter and definitely caused mental cruelty to husband,” the court said.
