Kochi, Jan 23 (PTI) The Kerala High Court has dismissed
a habeas corpus plea filed by a 52-year-old man claiming to be
a "spiritual guru" seeking release of a 21-year-old woman from
the custody of her parents terming her as his "spiritual
live-in-partner".
A Division Bench of the High Court, comprising
justices K Vinod Chandran and M R Anitha, dismissed the plea
observing that the "antecedents" of the man are "not such as
to trust him with the custody of a young girl of 21" on mere
statement of she being tutored, by him, in spirituality.
