Case Summary: 547/2026 The court granted pre-arrest bail to petitioners Lilawati Devi and Jeetendra Kumar (mother-in-law and father-in-law), who were accused of dowry harassment and other offences under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita 2023. The judge found the allegations vague and lacking specific details, noting a 20-month delay between the victim leaving the matrimonial home and filing the FIR, suggesting manufactured charges arising from an underlying divorce dispute. The court released them on bail bonds of Rs. 10,000 each with two sureties, imposing a condition that they endeavour for amicable reconciliation between the estranged couple.
