"Frivolous": Supreme Court slams Israeli man who claimed to be father of Russian children found in Gokarna cave

The Supreme Court dismissed an appeal by an Israeli national who claimed paternity of two minor girls discovered living in a cave near Gokarna; the Court termed the petition “frivolous” and questioned the petitioner’s bona fides, residence and source of income. The High Court had declined to stay deportation of the Russian woman and children after the Russian consulate issued emergency travel documents; the petitioner failed to explain his absence and support for the family during the period they lived in the cave. The Bench asked for documentary proof of paternity and probed motives, ultimately refusing interference with deportation. The matter intersects family/paternity claims, immigration/FRRO procedures, child welfare considerations and judicial scrutiny against publicity litigation.
