Punjab & Haryana High Court dismissed a woman's petition claiming that Prince Harry of the United Kingdom promised to marry her. The Court rejected the plea calling it "day dreamer's fantasy". 

The petitioner an advocate sought legal action against Prince Harry and demanded to direct United Kingdom Police Cell to take action as he did not deliver on the promise to marry her. She requested that arrest warrants must be issued against him so that there is no further delay in their marriage.

The Court inquired whether the petitioner has ever travelled to the UK for which she replied that she hasn't and reiterated that she only spoke to 'Prince Harry' via social media.

The single judge Justice Arvind Singh Sangwan said that it is likely that the petitioner was in conversation with someone using a fake ID and such conversations can be relied upon by the court.

The high court said: "There is every possibility that so-called Prince Harry may be sitting in a Cyber Cafe of a village in Punjab, looking for greener pastures for himself". 

She also claimed that she even sent messages to Prince Charles that his son Prince Harry is engaged with her.

After inspecting the printouts of the conversation the Court stated that those weren't true copies as bits from it were erased aside from the fact that those are likely from a fake ID. 

“I find that this petition is nothing, but just a daydreamer’s fantasy about marrying Prince Harry. This petition, though very poorly drafted, both grammatically and lacking the knowledge of pleadings, speaks about some emails between the petitioner and Prince Harry, in which the person, sending the email, has stated that he promise to marry soon,” the order said. 

While the Court empathised with the petitioner for falling for a 'Catfish', the order further stated: “In view of the above, this Court finds no ground to entertain this petition and can only show its sympathy for the petitioner that she has believed such fake conversation to be true.”.
