The Supreme Court on Friday issued a bailable warrant against an Egyptian citizen Khaled Kamal Hussein Mohamed Kassem, for violating custodial orders of his son passed by the Bombay High Court.
The bench comprising Justices DY Chandrachud and MR Shah were hearing an appeal against the Bombay High Court order which had granted the interim custody of a minor boy named Kian to his father Kassem.
The appeal has been filed by the maternal aunt and maternal grandmother of the child. The father had filed a habeas corpus plea before the Bombay High court alleging that the petitioners had illegal custody of his child Kian. The Court passed an order in favour of the father to maintain the custody of child at Pune preferably in the vicinity nearby the house of petitioners for eight weeks from the date of the order made.
