According to the case of the prosecution, the deceased in this case is an young boy and he is stated to have eve-teased the daughter of the first accused. The first accused and his family members including these petitioners reprimanded him. Out of frustration, he committed suicide by jumping from a tower. 3. The learned counsel for the petitioners would submit that the petitioners are nowhere responsible for the commission of suicide by the deceased. 4. Repeatedly, the Hon'ble Supreme Court held that unless there ar materials to show that the accused had animus to drive the deceased to commit suicide, the question of invoking section 306 IPC does not arise. 5. In this case, except the reprimand, the accused have not committed any harm to the deceased. Thus, the petitioners have made out a prima facie in granting anticipatory bail. https://hcservices.ecourts.gov.in/hcservices/ 6.
