PoliticsDelhi HC: Father-in-law not liable under Domestic Violence Act for son's conduct
The Delhi High Court ruled that a father-in-law cannot be held liable under the Domestic Violence Act for failing to control his adult son's conduct. Justice Madhu Jain dismissed a petition against the father-in-law, noting that the Act covers direct abuse but not mere failure to control another adult. The court also noted a business relationship between the petitioner and father-in-law.
