K M Asokan, father of alleged love jihad victim Hadiya, today said he would consider moving a review petition in the Supreme Court against its judgement setting aside a Kerala High Court order annulling her marriage with a Muslim man.<\/p>\n
“Will consider filing a review petition,” he told reporters, reacting to the ruling by the apex court bench headed by Chief Justice Dipak Misra.<\/p>\n
He maintained that his daughter’s marriage with Shafin Jahan was an act of “adjustment” done by a group.<\/p>\n
The high court had annulled the marriage on a habeas corpus petition filed by Asokan, who hails from Vaikom in Kottayam district.<\/p>\n
“It was a kind of an adjustment marriage. There is no doubt. I will try to convince the court about it once again,” he said.<\/p>\n
He, however, expressed satisfaction over the Supreme Court stating that the National Investigation Agency (NIA) may continue its investigation in the matter.<\/p>\n
“The Supreme Court has not cancelled NIA investigation in the matter. The court took such a decision because… Shafin Jahan could be an extremist. Investigation is going on in the case,” he said.<\/p>\n
He also said it was painful for a father to send his daughter with an ‘extremist’.<\/p>\n
“There is no words to explain it,” Asokan said.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
