Durga Prasad & Anr vs State Of M.P

The Supreme Court upheld the conviction under Sections 498-A and 304-B IPC, affirming the High Court's decision that the prosecution proved the case beyond reasonable doubt. The Court clarified that for a conviction under Section 304-B, it must be shown that the woman was subjected to cruelty or harassment soon before her death in connection with dowry demands. The appeal was dismissed as the evidence supported the conclusion that the appellants caused the dowry death of Kripa Bai.
