A couple of Hujra Shah Mukeem, district Okara, who had chosen to tie the knot out of love, braved excessive torture by their relatives at the Lahore High Court premises and were allowed by the court to live happily ever after on Tuesday.
Asma bibi contracted love marriage with Raiz against will of her parents, who got an FIR of kidnapping against him and asked the police to hunt for the couple. Tired of running away all the time, Riaz filed a petition in the LHC and sought court orders for the cancellation of the FIR. On Tuesday both the families and the couple appeared before the court where Asma bibi told the court of Justice Manzoor Ahmed Malik that she loved Raiz and had contracted love marriage with him with free consent. When asked the second time, she said “I am sure that I want to spend the rest of my life with my husband.” The court then asked the investigation officer to record the statement of the girl and proceed per the law. The court disposed of the petition by quashing the FIR and ordering police not to harass the couple. Asma’s brothers, relatives and parents who felt humiliated and as soon as she came out of the court with her husband one of her brother reached toward her and lifting her in two arms tried to run toward the court’s exit gate. This started a scuffle between the members of the two families with one party beating Riaz and the other beating Asma. The couple then managed to escape from the gate, hand in hand, from the Masjid Shah Charag gate. The police watched the proceedings and did not interfere.
