Are these not biased and male bashing judgments?

POLITICS. .

Bombay high court ruled against the HIV+ husband. His wife not only got divorce but also alimony. Someday ago family court in Pune told husband that you can’t leave HIV+ wife. Is this fair?

The Bombay high court recently upheld a family court order that dissolved a marriage on the grounds that the husband was HIV-positive and cruel. The court was hearing an appeal by the husband against the family court order, which observed that the HIV virus leads to AIDS, a venereal disease that is sexually transmittable and communicable.

A division bench of P B Majumdar and R P Sondurbaldota observed that it was the duty of husband to provide for his wife and protect her. The court also directed Bipin (husband, name changed) to provide a well-furnished accommodation to Rashmi in a good locality near their children's school.

The court also directed Bipin to pay Rs 20,000 every month to Rashmi as alimony, besides Rs 15,000 every month to their minor son till the time he reaches adulthood. Rashmi told TOI, "Now, I am looking forward to moving on in life.''

But in Pune it went like this:

After hearing both parties, family court judge RV Deshmukh ruled that the petitioner was not entitled to a divorce. "HIV-infected persons need care and love, especially from near and dear ones," the judge said. The husband was avoiding his wife because of her HIV status and wanted custody of their only daughter on the plea that he feared she would get infected.

So if HIV-infected needed care then why husband got divorce in Mumbai high court? Isn’t the duty of wife to take care of husband? If a husband injured in factory during work then wife will get divorce plus half of property...in near future we are going to see this type of judgment also.

Asking alimony from a HIV+ husband is inhuman...barbaric decision by the judge. How can a wife tell that she is looking for new life forgetting everything about husband..who gave safety, shelter, new destiny?

Is there any problem to separate husband and innocent child from HIV infected mother?
