Process will be time-consuming, say lawyers, as both parties are lodged inside separate jails

Peter and Indrani Mukerjea
Indrani Mukerjea's husband, Peter, has finally agreed to a divorce by mutual consent, two months after she had sent him a divorce notice. Indrani learnt about this at the Sessions court on Monday afternoon, from her lawyer in the family court, Edith Dey.
"A photocopy of the reply from Peter's lawyer was handed over to Indrani, as she wanted to go through the contents after she returned to her prison cell in Byculla." Interestingly, in response to the nine points raised by Indrani, in her divorce notice sent to Pratim Mukerjea alias Peter at Arthur Road jail in the last week of April 2018, Peter's lawyer Amit P Ghag, responded on June 12, 2018 with two lines, and annexed the draft consent petition for divorce by mutual consent, (a readymade format generally approved by the family court).
