4.

Shri Kushwaha, SDOP informed this Court that case has been registered against the respondent No.4 vide Crime No.03/2022 at Police Station Bhonti, District Shivpuri for offence under Sections 363/376 of the IPC and now respondent No.4 is in jail.

5.

Corpus expressed her desire to live with respondent No.4. Document regarding age of corpus submitted by the petitioner indicates that corpus is minor because her date of birth is 05.08.2006, although her Adharcard and mark-sheet of Class 5th indicate that her date of birth is 05.02.2005. In either of the conditions, corpus is minor.

6.

Insistence of corpus to go to respondent No.4 cannot be acceded to at this stage whereas she denied to go to her parents home.
