    In Dutta Pradhan V State of Orissa 184 the accused abducted a young married woman from the lawful guardian and against her will, the act would amount to an offence of kidnapping notwithstanding the fact the accused belonged to the kandha tribe in which one of the recognized forms of marriage was that a young man forcibly takes away a young girl and later the marriage is solemnized with full consent of both the families. By no stretch of imagination such an act would legalize a crime of forcibly kidnapping a married woman from her lawful guardian against her will.
