Kundali Mismatch After Intimacy: Delhi HC Warns of Criminal Charges

• Delhi High Court refused bail to a man accused of physical relationship on marriage promise, then backing out due to 'kundali' mismatch.
• Justice Swarana Kanta Sharma stated that refusing marriage on horoscope incompatibility after repeated assurances could attract criminal liability under Section 69 of Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.
• The court noted the woman withdrew an initial complaint after marriage assurances, but lodged a fresh FIR when the man refused due to 'kundali' mismatch.
• The court emphasized that while criminal law isn't for failed relationships, refusing marriage based on non-matching 'kundalis' after prior assurances raises serious concerns.
• Bail was dismissed due to the gravity of allegations, material collected, and pending chargesheet.
