1 - 4 of 4 (0.17 seconds)Dr.(Mrs.) Malathi Ravi, M.D vs Dr. B.V . Ravi M.D on 30 June, 2014
However, appellant has
shown grit in living in one of the rooms of the plaintiff and still
prosecuting the criminal case against him which has ended up in his
acquittal. This criminal prosecution therefore can be said to be a false
accusation against the husband on the part of the wife. In such
circumstances, the respondent husband had justifiable grounds to allege
ill-tempered behaviour and false accusation on the part of the defendant-
wife. False implication in a criminal case itself amounts to cruelty as has
been held by the Apex Court in the case of Malathi Ravi, M.D vs.
B.V.Ravi, M.D reported in (2014) 7 SCC 640, paras- 43 and 44 thereof
and in the case of Vishwanath Sitaram Agrawal Vs. Sau. Sarla
Vishwanath Agrawal reported in AIR 2012 SC 2586, para-40 thereof.
