Bombay High Court Rejects Plea For Annulment Of Marriage By Wife Claiming She Was Drugged

Case: Monika Narendra Sharma Vs. Mukeshkumar Ramnath Bhagal

Coram: Justices KR Shriram and Prithviraj Chavan

Case No.: FAMILY COURT APPEAL NO.62 OF 2021

Court Observation: “It is crystal clear from the evidence of appellant that except her bare words, there is absolutely no corroboration from any corner either in the form of evidence of her parents, brothers, sisters or employees of Union Bank of India,”

“Overall evidence of appellant is improbable, unbelievable and unacceptable. No sane man would believe and accept her testimony as it is nothing but ipsedixitism.”

“The alleged fraud or force had indeed ceased to operate, the moment appellant (wife) came to know that she was deceitfully taken to a temple by offering ‘prasad’ spiked with some drugs and her signatures were obtained on some blank papers.”

“We have given various instances and analyased appellant’s case…only to expose the unbelievable story of appellant. Even for a moment, we do not go into the truthfulness and veracity of appellant’s version as regards it’s correctness, we fail to understand as to why she did not do anything and remained silent till 2017, i.e, almost for a period of six years,”
