#SupremeCourt dismisses an SLP preferred by the Union Territory of Chandigarh, where it was alleged that a person who served the #Indianarmy and was later appointed as a Constable, had concealed his involvement in a criminal case under Sections 148, 149, 323, 325, 506 IPC.
Court: Look at the background of the person, who has served the Indian Army for 12 years, and is a Gallantry awardee.
Was further of the opinion that he must have been acquitted during his service (which the Counsel confirmed)
…as Army Act is very strict in the conduct and had they found it to be anything contrary, a suitable action would have been taken by the concerned authority.
Court considering the peculiar facts of the case found no reason to interfere by way of an SLP. Court further left all questions open.

Religious mandate of Sura 4 Ayat 3 is binding on all Muslim men which specifically mandates all Muslim men to deal justly with orphans and only then they can marry 2,3 or 4 women but if a Muslim man fears that he'll not be able to do so then he can marry only one: Allahabad HC
The court observed this while rejecting a Muslim man's plea seeking restoration of conjugal rights whose first wife had refused to live with him as he married another woman without informing her and later asked her to share his consortium with the other woman. #AllahabadHighCourt
