A division bench of Justices A S Gadkari and P D Naik asked the actor and his wife to speak and resolve their differences over the children.
The Bombay High Court on Friday suggested to actor Nawazuddin Siddiqui and his estranged wife to resolve their differences about their two minor children amicably. Siddiqui has moved High Court with a habeas corpus (produce the person) petition seeking direction from his estranged wife, Zainab, to reveal the whereabouts of their children - a 12-year-old daughter and a 7-year-old son.
A division bench of Justices A S Gadkari and P D Naik asked the actor and his wife to speak and resolve their differences over the children.
"He (Siddiqui) is only concerned about his children and their education. Speak with each other and settle the communication and visitation rights between the father and children. If it can be worked out, then good...settle the matter amicably...resolve the issues," the court said.
Advocate Pradeep Thorat, appearing for Siddiqui, told the court that the actor was unaware of the whereabouts of his children. "The petitioner (Siddiqui) thought his children were in Dubai. But he has now got a mail from the children's school warning to rusticate them as they have not been attending their classes," Thorat said.
