Case in Brief

Savirigana Bharathi, aged 30 years, D/o Savirigana Ramaiah, R/o Patapatnam, Srikakulam, SC Mala by caste got married to her uncle Ramakrishna in the year 1992 as soon as she completed her 10th standard.  In her marital life she gave birth to a girl and a boy child.  But as both Bharathi and Ramakrishna were not willing to stay in this marriage, they got divorced in the year 1997.  The boy child was taken by Ramakrishna and the girl child by Bharathi.  

From 1997 to 1998, Bharathi stayed with her child and was working as joint secretary in IVDS.  Gopi alias Vijay Kumar, aged 30 years, R/o Patapatnam, Srikakulam, OC Brahmin by caste started conversing with Bharathi in the beginning of the year 1998 and gradually closeness developed between them and by ending of the year 1999, Bharathi proposed that they should get married for which Gopi asked time for one month.   After one month Gopi said that he wants to marry Bharathi.  Both of them started living together in the same village with the consent of both the families since 1999.  She got aborted twice from 1999 to 2003.  Bharathi gave Rs.50,000/- to Gopi as dowry when he said that he wants to buy a two-wheeler.  In the year 2003, Gopi got engaged to another girl of his caste and Bharathi approached the collector and SP for justice.  With the intervention of the district SP and collector, Bharathi and Gopi made an agreement and signed in the presence of Patapatnam police station that both of them would live together and Gopi would not marry any other woman except Bharathi.  Gopi was not to be seen from the next day.  Bharathi searched everywhere, enquired his friends, family and relatives but in vain.  

In the year 2004, one day suddenly Gopi called Bharathi over phone and said that he was forcefully sent to Vijayawada by his parents and asked her to meet him immediately.  Bharathi reached him next day by evening and both of them decided that they should stay in Hyderabad.  She returned to Srikakulam and made necessary arrangements, resigned her job and went to Hyderabad to stay with Gopi.  Bharathi stayed in her friend’s place for two months where Gopi used to visit her regularly.  Gopi asked her to search a job abroad so that she can work there and search a job for him.  She got visa to Kuwait but one week before her departure, he asked her not to leave.  She cancelled her trip though she had to loose Rs.60, 000/- that she spent for the arrangements.  

Then she worked in Atchampet for two months and he used to visit her once in a week.  He asked her that they should have a child and as a result she conceived.  Later she worked in Chevella for two months and then got a job in Amberpet.  Both of them took a house in Amberpet and started living together.  He was doing business in Balanagar and said that it would be better for him to stay in Balanagar for it is the initial stages of business.  He started living with his brothers in Balanagar and used to visit her regularly.  A girl child was born on 9th October 2005 and was named Pavithra.  They together celebrated her first birthday on 9th October 2006. 

In February 2007 he said that his family is forcing that he should get married to some one in his caste.  This raised a dispute among them and Bharathi did not agree.  They shifted their house in Amberpet on 25th February 2007 and he said that he is ill and also the issue of his marriage is getting him down and wants to stay alone for some days without Bharathi and his parents.  Bharathi agreed for this.  But he left her on that day without any contact.  She tried everywhere for him but again his whereabouts were not known.  Again he came into contact on 10th April 2007.  When they met Bharathi noticing the guilty feeling in him demanded him what the matter was and he said that he got married to another woman called Durga of his caste and for two days, Bharathi’s friend, Bharathi and Gopi argued on the same matter.  After a week, with the force of Bharathi, he said that he is living with Durga in Kukatpally and she went there.  An argument arose between them and as next day was Sunday, Bharathi went to church and on Monday when she went to Kukatpally she did not find them.  On enquiry, Bharathi found out that Gopi and Durga are living near Durga’s brother-in-law’s place in Bharathnagar.  When Bharathi went there, Durga, her sister Geetha and brother-in-law abused Bharathi in the name of caste.  

When Bharathi took this issue to Bharathnagar Mahila Mandali, they talked to both the parties and Gopi said that Bharathi forced him to stay with her and they don’t have any relation.  Bharathi complained in the Sanathnagar PS on 23rd May 2007, but they registered the case u/s 498A of IPC and 4, 5 of DPA.  No action was taken on the accused and he is living with Durga.  Bharathi is left out with her girl child alone.
