But in the meantime the relationship broke down due to mutual tension and estrangement.After this the fiance filed a case of rape against her future husband.Justice Amanullah said, “You met through matrimonial website, it means that you were eager and willing to get married. But after you have spent some time with the relationship, now rejected. This is not fair at all.”On this, the petitioner clarified that it is not so at all. He is a government employee. But his fiance has filed a false case in anger and selfishness. He needs protection from arrest so that he can prove his innocence.On this, the court assured to hear it on next Tuesday.
