The High Court of Karnataka has granted divorce to a 42-year-old woman from her 53-year-old husband on the grounds of causing mental cruelty to her as he treated her as a “cash cow” to repay the huge debt of his family members and his financial needs sans any emotional ties with her.
A Division Bench comprising Justice Alok Aradhe and Justice J.M. Khazi passed the order recently while allowing the woman’s appeal against the Family Court’s order of rejecting her plea for divorce.
