    Mumbai: Refuting the submissions of former state minister Dhananjay Munde's lawyer that at most the woman, who claimed to be his first wife, could be termed the man's "concubine," disentitling her to any relief, a sessions court said that prima facie he was in a relationship with the woman in the nature of marriage. The court also held that she gave birth to two children, which was not possible without them residing in a shared household.
