A bench of Justices Surya Kant and Joymalya Bagchi directed the authorities to seize her passport and inform all international airports and other ports within India, and the immigration authorities to ensure she did not leave the country.

The father is fighting a custody battle for the child with the estranged Russian wife. In his petition, he alleged that she wasn't complying with the court's order of custody of the minor.
