The 2-judge bench of Justice K. Vinod Chandran and C. Jayachandran passed the order in the couple's favour after the two expressed their desire to live together.


Nazrin spoke to Republic TV about her difficult ordeal of coming out about her sexuality to her parents.


She said, "We are a lesbian couple and we became committed during school days. Our parents caught our relationship but we lied and still continued our relationship. After completing our degrees and getting a job, we left our homes and things started to fall upside down. My parents took responsibility for us, but they were playing us. They have mentally tortured us."


As per reports, the couple had run away from their homes on May 19 and had found a temporary haven at Vanaja Collective, an NGO for marginalised groups.
