Orders
Court Decision Summary The Gauhati High Court quashed criminal proceedings against Malek Uddin for child marriage under the Prohibition of Child Marriage Act, 2006 and POCSO Act. Since the minor girl is now an adult, living peacefully with her husband, and both parties seek to discontinue prosecution, the court found no possibility of conviction and ruled that continuing the trial would constitute an abuse of court process. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
