The High Court observed as hereunder:- "Admittedly, the abductee seems to be of tender age. She levelled allegation of Zina-bil-Jabr against the petitioner in her statement under section 164, Cr.P.C. During cross-examination, no suggestion was put to her whether she entered into Nikah with the petitioner and put her signatures on the Nikahnama or not; over and above this, neither the alleged Nikahnama was produced before the police nor witnesses of the Nikah were examined in defence by the petitioner. " ' No ground made out for interfering with this discretionary order. Leave to appeal is refused.
