1 Appln 804-2011 Anand IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO.804 OF 2011 The State of Maharashtra .Applicant V/s. Deepak Dattatray Satpute & ors .Respondents Mr.S.A.Shaikh, APP, for the Applicant - State Mr.Shekhar Ingawale, Advocate, for the Respondents CORAM : R.C.CHAVAN, J. DATE : 28TH JULY, 2011 P.C. . Heard the learned Counsel for the respective parties. 2. This is an application for leave to file an Appeal against acquittal of the respondents recorded by the learned Additional Sessions Judge, Sewree, Mumbai for the offence punishable under Section 306 of the Indian Penal Code. The victim Dipti was married to respondent No.1 in the year December, 2003. There was one incident of ill treatment in the 2 Appln 804-2011 year 2003 around Ganpati festival. Thereafter, there is an allegation that on 3rd September, 2008 the victim rang up her father and told him that the respondent had beaten her up after consuming liquor. The victim committed suicide on 12th October, 2008 by hanging herself. Report of the incident was given on 22nd November, 2008 though the complainant claims to have approached the police after ten days of the incident. The learned Judge refused to believe the evidence and held that there was nothing to show that conduct of the respondent amounted to abetment to commit suicide. Considering that there was one incident in the year 2003 followed by one telephonic complaint about one incident of ill treatment, it cannot be said that the prosecution had succeeded in attributing to the respondents conduct which could be termed as instigation or abetment to commit suicide. View taken by the learned Judge cannot be said to be perverse or improbable. Leave refused. 3 Appln 804-2011 Appeal dismissed. 3. Criminal Application stands disposed of. (R.C.CHAVAN, J.)
