    Summary The Punjab & Haryana High Court granted bail to Jyoti Kumari, a 24-year-old woman accused under Section 108 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (abetment to suicide) following the death of a 19-year-old. The court found the FIR was based solely on the complainant's belief without a suicide note or specific evidence of abetment, considered the petitioner's clean record and over one month in custody, and emphasized that bail is the rule, not exception, particularly given prolonged trial delays infringing Article 21 rights. Bail was granted subject to standard conditions including bond furnishing and travel restrictions. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
