The Bombay High Court`s Aurangabad bench has ordered the annulment of a young couple`s marriage, citing the husband`s "relative impotency" as the cause for their failure to consummate the relationship. Justices Vibha Kankanwadi and S G Chapalgaonkar handed the decision on April 15, emphasising the couple`s grief and despair.
The dispute occurred when a 27-year-old man appealed to the High Court after his 26-year-old wife filed for annulment in February 2024, which was denied by the family court. The court defined "relative impotency" as a situation in which a person is capable of intercourse but is unable to do it with their spouse for a variety of medical or mental reasons, reported PTI.
