    Judgment

    CASE SUMMARY: Sessions Case No. 29/2025 The court acquitted all three accused of charges under IPC Sections 306 R/w 34 (abetment of suicide). The prosecution alleged the accused subjected deceased Smt. Mahadevi to torture over a dowry dispute, causing her to consume poison on April 3, 2024, leading to her death on April 7, 2024. However, the court found the FSL report showed no poison residues in her body, and the actual cause of death was cardio-respiratory failure, contradicting the prosecution's poisoning theory. Key witnesses turned hostile, and no credible evidence of harassment was established. The court held the prosecution failed to prove guilt beyond reasonable doubt. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
