‘Day-dreamer’s fantasy’: HC rejects woman’s plea against Prince Harry

- Surender Sharma letters@hindustant­imes.com

CHANDIGARH: The Punjab and Haryana high court has dismissed a lawyer’s plea seeking action against Prince Harry of the British royal family for “breaking a promise” to marry, saying the alleged pledge is just a “day-dreamer’s fantasy”.

“...I find that this petition is nothing, but just a daydreamer’s fantasy about marrying Prince Harry,” said a bench of Justice Arvind Singh Sangwan last week. “This petition, though very poorly drafted, both grammatica­lly and lacking the knowledge of pleadings, speaks about some emails between the petitioner and Prince Harry, in which the person, sending the email, has stated that he promises to marry soon.”

Palwinder Kaur, the petitioner, told the court she has never been to the UK and that she had a conversati­on with Harry through social media. She even sent messages to “Prince Charles that his son Prince Harry” is “engaged” to her.

“There is every possibilit­y that so-called Prince Harry may be sitting in a cybercafe of a village in Punjab, looking for greener pastures for himself,” the bench said.
