Married Minor Girl and released Intimate Pics on Facebook - Court imposes Fine!
A young man was fined Rs 75,000 by the chennai High court for marrying a girl and publishing intimate images of her on Facebook. suresh is from the Perambalur district's Kunnam region, where he met and married an 18-year-old girl in June. suresh was booked under the Child marriage Prevention Act and the POCSO Act, arrested, and then released on bail in the High court, according to a complaint filed by the girl's mother at the Kunnam police station.
The daughter turned 18 and her parents married Velmurugan while suresh was in jail. suresh had filed an appeal at the High court, claiming that his wife was being held against his will and that he should be brought to court. The woman was urged to withdraw the complaint when it came up for hearing in the session of Justices BN Prakash and R Hemalatha because she was married to someone else. Suresh's spokesperson, on the other hand, stated that he would like to accompany him if his wife, who is being held in the family's illegal custody, is brought in person and probed, and the case is not dismissed.
According to the court order, the woman, her mother, and her husband then appeared. The woman went on to tell the judges that she had married Velmurugan of her own free will, with her parents' permission. He also said that suresh was already involved with two women, both of whom had left him owing to Suresh's wrongdoing. suresh had uploaded close-up images of himself with his daughter on Facebook, according to the Thai lawyer at the time. Suresh's argument for the woman's release was disregarded by the judges who recorded these. suresh was also fined Rs 75,000 by the judges, who directed him to pay the money to the girl's mother within eight weeks.
