Sanjay deserted me, Karisma tells HC

Karisma Kapoor on Saturday submitted before the Delhi High Court that she was deserted by her ‘disgruntled’ husband Sanjay Kapur who dragged her to court in a ‘crude attempt’ to seek redress of their matrimonial issues by using their five-month-old daughter Samaira as a ‘pawn’.

In her affidavit filed in response to Sanjay's petition seeking to restrain Karisma from taking Samaira abroad, the actress said he constructively deserted her and that he was aware why she was "compelled to reside in Mumbai".

Seeking dismissal of Sanjay's petition on the ground of lack of jurisdiction as the passport was issued by Regional Passport Office (RPO) Mumbai, Karisma submitted that the contours of the petition left no doubt that it is nothing but "a crude attempt to urge and seek redress of matrimonial issues of a disgruntled husband and this respondent (Karisma) by using the minor as a pawn."

Karisma said after their marriage, they took up residence in Delhi.

However, Sanjay suppressed the essential fact that "thereafter the "petitioner (Sanjay) constructively deserted this respondent (Karisma) who was left with no option but to leave Delhi in January, 2005 and reside separately from her husband in Mumbai."

Karisma alleged "barring a few occasional visits to meet their daughter, the petitioner has played no part in the upbringing and welfare of the minor child even today.

"Particularly, the petitioner (Sanjay) has made no financial contribution to the upkeep of the child and the pre-natal, delivery and post-natal care of the mother," she submitted in her affidavit filed through Karanjawala and Co.
