The Madras High Court recently said that although Islamic law entitles a husband to polygamy, he has to treat all his wives equally, failing which would amount to cruelty. The bench of Justices RMT Teeka Raman and PB Balaji observed while upholding the decision of a family court in Tirunelveli which had passed an order of dissolution of marriage on the ground of cruelty. The high court also noted that the husband and his family members had initially tortured and harassed his first wife. Later, he married another woman and has been living with her since. Madras High Court Grants Bails to Man Arrested and Charged Under UAPA, Asks ‘Is Conspiring To Kill Hindu Religious Leader a Terrorist Act Under UAPA?’
