We enquired her According to her, she is 19 years old and her date of birth is 1.06.1987. There is no dispute regarding her age. Hence, we hold that the detenue is a major. On our further enquiry, she has informed us that on 25.01.2006 she married the third respondent Prabhu at Echanari Mariamman Temple, Coimbatore District and she also asserted that from that date onwards i.e. from 25.01.2006, she is living with her husband.
