As per case facts, the complainant's daughter experienced prolonged marital cruelty, dowry demands, physical and mental harassment, and financial exploitation from her husband and his family since their marriage. The ... FIR details various abuses, including taunts, physical assault, forced medical procedures, and misappropriation of her documents and funds. The petitioners sought to quash the FIR, arguing that the marriage was dissolved and the FIR was belatedly filed. The question arose whether the petition was maintainable without impleading the victim/wife, to whom all allegations pertain, despite her father being the complainant. Finally, the High Court determined that a petition to quash an FIR is not maintainable if the victim is not made a party, particularly without a satisfactory explanation for her absence, leading to the dismissal of the petition.
