The husband and the relatives of the husband alone can commit the offence under Section 498 A I.P.C in law, urges the learned counsel for the petitioner. 2. The learned Public Prosecutor after taking instructions submits before the Court that the Investigator is satisfied about the acceptability of the said contention and has subsequently filed a report before the court deleting the petitioner from the array of parties. The petitioner is no more an accused in the crime, submits the learned Public Prosecutor. 3. I take note of and record the submissions of the learned Public Prosecutor. In the light of that submission, the learned counsel for the petitioner submits that no further directions are necessary in this Crl.M.C. This Crl.M.C is, accordingly dismissed as agreed.
