Allahabad High Court Orders Production of Shamli Man
The Allahabad High Court is trying to find a 31-year-old man named Ayush Malik.
His friend says Ayush is being held by his father against his will.
The friend says Ayush changed his religion and married a Muslim woman.
Ayush’s father reportedly opposed the marriage.
The father also filed a criminal complaint against the woman and her father.
They were arrested under several alleged offenses, including unlawful religious conversion.
The court has ordered that Ayush be brought before it on September 16.
If he is not brought, the authorities and his father must explain why.
The Allahabad High Court ordered authorities to produce 31-year-old Ayush Malik on September 16.
Ayush’s friend, Sultan, filed a habeas corpus petition alleging that Ayush was being illegally detained by his father.
