Enticing a married woman away for an illicit relationship is a punishable offence under Section 84 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) and contracting a second marriage without dissolution of the first may amount to bigamy under Section 82 of the legislation, the High Court of J&K and Ladakh has said. A bench of Justice MA Chowdhary made the observations while refusing to quash an FIR registered in an alleged abduction case. The complaint disclosed cognizable offences and required a full-fledged investigation, the court noted while dismissing the petition that had called in question the FIR.
