In Brief
In this matrimonial dispute brought before the Supreme Court in contempt jurisdiction, Ms. Jasmine Charaniya and Mr. Ahmed Charaniya had previously settled their differences but later alleged non-compliance with settlement terms. The Court, with help of senior mediators, facilitated a comprehensive resolution. The parties ultimately agreed to divorce by mutual consent under the Special Marriage Act, 1954. The Court granted the divorce and ordered that any future disputes concerning the settlement terms must be brought exclusively before it, with no recourse to other forums. The contempt petition was disposed of accordingly.">
