In a significant legal ruling, a court dismissed allegations of cruelty and sexual harassment against a husband and his family, stating that the accusations were exaggerated and driven by vengeance rather than justice.

Judicial Magistrate Shruti Sharma, addressing the case, highlighted that the claims filed by the complainant were perceived as an attempt to misuse legal provisions for personal vendettas instead of genuine grievances.

The order emphasized the need for verifiable evidence when making serious charges and criticized the practice of labeling marital conflicts as criminal offenses under severe legal sections.
