ASMABEN NOORMOHMAD VOHRAversusSTATE OF GUJARAT

Disposal: 40-WITHDRAWN @ FH
Bench: HASMUKH D SUTHAR

Holding

The revision application is dismissed as it was not pressed by the petitioner.

Summary

The petitioner, Asmaben Noormohmad Vohra, filed a criminal revision application under the Domestic Violence Act seeking relief against the State of Gujarat and other respondents. The petitioner’s counsel, however, chose not to press the application during the hearing. The learned single judge noted that the application was not pressed and therefore could not be entertained on its merits. Consequently, the court disposed of the application without examining the substantive issues. No findings on the merits of the domestic violence allegations were made.
