Mr.Dilip Bodake for respondent nos.1 & 2. ---- Coram : R.S.Mohite,J Coram : R.S.Mohite,J Coram : R.S.Mohite,J Date : 23.07.2008. PC 1. This is an application for leave to appeal. The accused who are mother-in-law and husband of the deceased have been acquitted for offences punishable under Sections 498-A and 306 r/w 34 of IPC. On perusing the judgment and order, I find that the acquittal is based on cogent and acceptable reasons. There are two dying declarations which are at variance with each other. In the 1st dying declaration the deceased stated that she had a quarrel with accused no.1 and therefore, she committed suicide. In the 2nd dying declaration she talked about a quarrel with accused no.2 and not with accused no.1. The cause of the quarrel seems to be small house hold problems about there not : 2 : being enough milk. Benefit of doubt to be given to the accused persons. Hence, leave refused. Consequently appeal papers to be filed. (R.S.Mohite,J) (R.S.Mohite,J) (R.S.Mohite,J)
