The mother of a three-year-old born out of a live-in relationship moved Bombay High Court on Friday seeking custody of her daughter.
In a habeas corpus petition,the woman said her partner had taken the child to his home town in Kerala when she was in Dubai on work. The man,she said,told her parents with whom she had left the child that he was taking her home,but instead took her to Kerala.
She alleged that her partner had also taken her gold jewellery with him.
After returning to India,the woman filed a complaint at Trombay police station and followed it up with the habeas corpus plea. The child was seen sitting in courtroom 13 on Friday afternoon nibbling a bar of chocolate.
The court let her stay with her father until September 3,when it will hear the couple.
