    Case Summary: 684/2015 State of Rajasthan v. Narmda bai (Advocate Sunil Paliwal) The court acquitted the accused Narmda bai of charges under IPC Section 498-A (cruelty to married women) and Dowry Prohibition Act Section 4. The petitioner alleged that the accused demanded ₹5 lakh dowry after the complainant's marriage to the accused's son, who had HIV/AIDS, and harassed her both physically and mentally after his death. However, the prosecution failed to prove the charges beyond reasonable doubt—no medical evidence corroborated the dowry demand allegation, witness testimonies contained contradictions, and the core dispute centered on employment-related family conflict rather than dowry harassment. The judgment found the evidence insufficient to establish the statutory elements of Section 498-A. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
