The Trinamool MP and Mr Dehadrai, a Supreme Court lawyer, were reportedly in a relationship and have not been on the best terms since they parted ways. The two have now accused each other of "stealing" Henry and engaged in the legal battle since 2023.
Ms Moitra said Henry belongs to her and has sought joint custody of the dog.
On the other hand, Mr Dehadrai has challenged a trial court order that restrains him from publicising the custody battle with Ms Moitra. Appearing for Mr Dehadrai, advocate Sanjay Ghose said he was upset with the trial court's order that restricted both of them from publicly talking about the case. He said the order, which was passed on a suit by Ms Moitra, violated his freedom of speech.
He also said he earlier made a post on X without mentioning the details of the case but it was later termed a violation of the court order. "A frivolous case is filed against me, and I can't talk about it, I can't discuss it, I can't write about it? Where is it necessary to the fairness of the trial? She is an MP. Can an MP claim a higher right over a normal plaintiff?" Mr Ghose said.
In fact, this case may actually set a very bad example, because the dog is being treated like a chattel by Mahua’s complaint. It’s like saying that your ex “stole” your child.
