    The Punjab & Haryana High Court dismissed Avtar Singh's habeas corpus petition seeking custody of minor Gaganpreet Kaur, finding the dispute between biological parents and petitioners (who lacked formal adoption rights) unsuitable for summary habeas corpus proceedings. The court directed parties to approach the Family Court for custody determination, with assurance that interim custody/visitation applications would be decided within three months, noting the child welfare officer's report indicated the minor was happy with her biological parents. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
