Former Miss World Yukta Mookhey and her estranged husband Prince Tuli were on Monday asked by the Bombay high court to consider finding an amicable solution to their issues.
While hearing an anticipatory bail application filed by Mr Tuli, Justice Sadhana Jadhav asked the couple to appear in her chamber on September 30 to explore the scope for reconciliation.
Both Mr Tuli and Ms Mookhey were not present in the court on Monday, although their lawyers were.
In a police complaint in July, Ms Mookhey had accused her husband of domestic violence and her in-laws of cruelty and harassment.
Mr Tuli moved the high court for anticipatory bail after the sessions court rejected his plea.
Although the lower court had observed that a case of domestic violence was not made out in the complaint, the HC observed that the sessions court did not take into consideration the fact that an offence under Section 498A (cruelty) of the IPC was “a continuing offence”.
