    Refusal to speak to wife, consummate marriage not cruelty: SC
    Credits:
  • The SC has quashed a case under Section 498A against a man, ruling refusal to talk to the wife doesn't amount to cruelty.

    The woman had taken her husband to court after no one at her in-laws talked to her for the first 20 days after marriage.

    She complained the husband had refused to consummate the marriage and had left for Australia.

  • The woman alleged her family had spent Rs. 15L on the wedding and Rs. 20L on ornaments. But after her husband left home, no one in her matrimonial home had talked to her.

    She was eventually forced to go back to her parents' place.

    The Hyderabad HC had earlier refused to quash her case against the husband.
