Mumbai Deregisters Trust Running Illegal Sharia Court After Triple Talaq Ban

Mumbai's deputy charity commissioner has deregistered a trust operating as an illegal sharia court that was dissolving marriages through extra-judicial means. A woman recently complained after receiving a notice for talaq-e-ahsan, which she contested. Following the criminalization of triple talaq, men are increasingly exploiting these unofficial courts to end nikah, circumventing legal procedures. The crackdown highlights growing concerns about the need to codify Muslim Personal Laws to prevent abuse and protect women's rights.
