A non-bailable arrest warrant can be issued against a man who fails to pay maintenance ordered under the Domestic Violence Act, the Bombay high Court has ruled.
“The provisions of the Criminal Procedure Code relating to maintenance as also the Domestic Violence Act which are beneficial legislations for protection of women such as the wife in this case are required to be construed so as to benefit those persons for whom they are enacted,” said Justice Roshan Dalvi. The court dismissed a petition filed by a city resident who had challenged the NBW issued against him by a magistrate over his failure to pay maintenance to his wife, despite court orders.
“The Magistrate issuing NBW seems to have followed the special procedure for the arrest of the husband for non-payment of the maintenance ordered to be paid. Such procedure and such procedural order is within the framework of the Act and hence cannot be faulted as it is not seen to be illegal,’’ the judge said, adding, "The NBW shall be executed unless the husband pays off the entire arrears now due and payable.”.
Section 20 of Domestic Violence Act "Monetary reliefs"
1. While disposing of an application under sub-section (1) of section 12, the Magistrate may direct the respondent to pay monetary relief to meet the expenses incurred and losses suffered by the aggrieved person and any child of the aggrieved person as a result of the domestic violence
Therefore if you have not preferred any appeal agaisnt the order, it would be better that you arrange to pay the maintenance amount.
