A businessman's photographs of wildlife taken at various
international destinations and uploaded on facebook nailed his lie that he
couldn't afford to pay maintenance to his estranged wife and child. Bombay High
Court held that the income-tax returns furnished as proof did not paint the
entire picture of his financial condition, and upheld a family court order
directing him to shell out Rs 25,000 as monthly maintenance to his wife and
minor son. The court held his lifestyle indicated he could afford to pay the
interim maintenance. In 2015, the family court had ordered the businessman to
pay the maintenance. The businessman challenged the order in high court
contending he could not afford to do so due to his meagre salary. The
businessman also pointed out his wife was an architect and could earn a living.
