Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court set aside the Bombay High Court's order quashing FIR No.35/2015 against the first respondent under Section 306 IPC for abetment of suicide. The Court held that the continuous harassment by the first respondent, as evidenced by the suicide note and testimonies, established a prima facie case for abetment. The judgment emphasized that the nature of the relationship and the persistent contact with the victim's family warranted further investigation into the allegations.
