After about 3-4 months of the marriage, the respondent\u00a0left the matrimonial home on the pretext of visiting her ailing brother, and never returned. She has been living separately ever since. Subsequently, she filed an application under Section 125 CrPC, claiming maintenance from the petitioner. the case of the respondent was that starting from the very first night of marriage, she was subjected to torture by her husband and in-laws for not bringing a dowry of Rs 10,000 and other property.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Sub-Divisional Judicial Magistrate held that the respondent was not able to prove her case and therefore, rejected\u00a0her application. The Additional Sessions Judge, however, reversed that decision and directed the petitioner\u00a0to pay Rs 1000 per month to the respondent. Aggrieved thereby, the petitioner filed the instant revision petition.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On perusal of the record, the High Court noted:\u00a0<strong>&#8220;While there is an allegation of torture on the wife\/respondent by the petitioner\/husband, the fact remains that she was not driven out by her husband and she left on her own. This fact is not denied by the petitioner\/husband and as such remained intact. This Court is also mindful of the fact that the respondent\/wife left the company of the petitioner\/husband within 2\/3 months of their marriage and in the back of her mind, the fact that she was subjected to torture was always playing and the fact of torture evidently is not denied by the petitioner in his evidence.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">On such facts, the Court observed:\u00a0<strong>&#8220;Although the respondent\/wife left the house tangibly on her own yet the circumstances, as appears from the evidence, are such that the wife\/respondent had to leave the house of the petitioner\/husband under compelling reasons due to the torture meted out to her although such fact was not disclosed in so many words in her petition. No attempt by the petitioner\/husband to take her back and also not providing maintenance during her separate stay for a long time is indicative of lack of persuasion on his part although an effort to persuade would have been the course usually adopted by any husband.&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the circumstances aforesaid, the High Court was of the opinion that the finding in the impugned order that the respondent was entitled to maintenance was correct. It was, however, held that the petitioner would pay the amount of maintenance as directed, not from the date of application before the Sub-Divisional Judicial Magistrate; but only from the date of order passed by the Additional Sessions Judge. Order was made accordingly. [Pradip Das Sarkar v.
