The Calcutta High Court recently observed that it's not cruel if a wife sells property purchased in her name without her husband's permission. The division bench of Justice Harish Tandon and Justice Prasenjit Biswas made the observation while hearing a woman’s appeal against the trial court's order to grant divorce in favour of her husband on the grounds of cruelty and desertion. "It appears that both are educated, and if the wife decided to sell the property standing in her name without seeking approval or permission from the husband-respondent, it should not constitute cruelty," the court said. The High Court also stated that if the husband can sell the property without his wife’s approval, then the property standing in the wife's name can be sold by her without his permission. HC on Rape: Even If Victim Willingly Leaves Home to Go With Accused, It Does Not Give Him Right to Rape Her, Says Calcutta High Court.
