As per case facts, the respondent-husband sought divorce alleging cruelty, stating the appellant-wife refused cohabitation, demanded property, quarreled, threatened suicide, and filed false dowry allegations. The Family Court granted divorce. ... The appellant-wife appealed, arguing her evidence, compromise, and allegations of dowry and beatings were ignored, and that the separation alone shouldn't override compromise. The question arose whether the Family Court's judgment required interference. Finally, the High Court affirmed the divorce, finding the appellant-wife's denial of cohabitation and false dowry allegations amounted to cruelty, supporting the Family Court's plausible findings. The appeal was dismissed, with liberty to the wife to seek permanent alimony.
