punishable under Sections 498A, 306 read with Section 34
of the Indian Penal Code.
Applicant nos.1 and 2 are father-in-law and
mother-in-law of Shweta, whereas applicant no.3 is her
sister-in-law. Shweta’s marriage took place with Swapnil,
son of applicant nos.1 and 2 on 06.12.2016. She committed
suicide by hanging herself on 13.11.2019. In view of the
oral report lodged by Pralhad, father of Shweta, the crime is
registered against the applicants and Swapnil.
First Information Report (FIR) would reveal that
Swapnil and Shweta were in love with each other. They
performed Court marriage. Report would show that after
marriage within 2 to 3 days Swapnil along with Shweta went
to Pune for service. The gravamen accusation against
applicants in the FIR is that they used to obstruct Shweta
from talking with her parents on cellphone. It is not the case
of the prosecution that applicants used to stay at Pune with
Shweta and Swapnil.
Nature of accusations against the applicants are
most general in nature. Prima facie, it shows that applicants
at no point of time, abetted the decease to commit suicide.
In that view of the matter, I pass the following order.
ORDER
(i) The application is allowed.
(ii) In the event of arrest in connection with Crime

No.197/2019 registered with Police Station, Mana, Tal.
Murtizapur, Dist. Akola for an offence punishable under
