HC , Matrimonial Profile

The Bombay High Court has granted divorce to a man on grounds of “mental cruelty” meted out by the woman to her husband, who is 36 years old. The court observed that the evidence suggests that the woman had inflicted mental pain and suffering on the man, so that it was impossible to live with him anymore. Furthermore, it was noted that the Family Courts had refused to grant him divorce despite the wife having made two matrimonial profiles. It seemed like the wife wanted to get rid of the appellant and start a second marriage. The background of the case too seemed to corroborate the same to the court. The court observed that the man was left to fight the divorce case for six years after the woman walked out of their marital home in 2015.
