The Allahabad High Court discharged a wife and her parents from charges under Section 306 IPC, holding that no prima facie case of abetment of suicide was made out. The Court observed that to attract Section 306 IPC, there must be direct or indirect instigation with clear mens rea under Section 107 IPC. In this case, allegations were general, arising from ordinary matrimonial discord. Remarks like “he should die,” made during quarrels, lacked intention or proximity to suicide. The Court held that mere harassment or disputes do not constitute abetment unless they leave no alternative for the victim but suicide. The discharge application was rightly allowed, quashing the Sessions Judge’s order.
