Habeas Corpus | Minor's Willingness & Parental Undertaking Override Alleged Maltreatment: Rajasthan HC Grants Custody to Mother
Rajasthan High Court disposed a habeas corpus petition by prioritizing the minor's expressed willingness to return to her mother, coupled with the mother's undertaking to ensure her well-being. The ruling establishes that allegations of past maltreatment do not automatically negate custody rights if the minor consents and safeguards are in place, offering a nuanced precedent for family courts handling similar disputes.
