Haryana: Already married wrestling coach converts to Islam, marries minor Muslim girl in a mosque, girl files plea seeking protection from her family

Op India  

On Friday, December 23, Madhya Pradesh police booked a wrestling coach for abducting a minor Muslim girl from Bhopal. Notably, the minor girl, citing a recent ruling of Punjab and Haryana High Court which held that a Muslim minor girl can marry a person of choice upon attaining puberty, filed a petition in Punjab and Haryana HC seeking protection for the couple from her family. Umesh Yadav, Shyamla Hills police station in-charge said that the girl quoted the High Court’s October 28, 2022 ruling, which stated that a Muslim girl’s marriage after reaching puberty would not be invalid under section 12 of the Prohibition of Child Marriage Act 2006, to legalise their marriage. It is pertinent to mention that a woman named Jaya Phogat claiming to Naveen Nara’s first wife had filed a petition alleging that Naveen had not changed his religion while marrying the Muslim minor girl.
