the husband of complainant. The FIR mentions that on 31 st October
2018 the husband had assaulted the complainant and she was
pushed on the wall as a result of which she had sustained injury
which had consequently resulted in abortion. The advocate for
applicant points out that the allegations are false and prior to the
registration of FIR in question, the husband had lodged a complaint
with Malad Police Station on 16 th November 2018 that there is every
likelihood that he would be falsely implicated in false case. It is
further submitted that although the alleged incident had occurred on
31st October 2018, the FIR was lodged on 11 th December 2018. The
complainant had undergone abortion on 15th November 2018.
Learned counsel for applicant submitted that medical evidence on
record does not show that abortion was on account of any assault
attributed to the complainant.
2. Learned APP submits that investigation is in progress and
doctor’s statement is to be recorded. Presently interim protection can
be granted to the applicants on certain conditions.
3. Hence, I pass following order :
