Mr.S.A. Shaikh, APP for the State. CORAM : V.M. KANADE, J. DATED : AUGUST 5, 2010 P.C. :- 1 Heard Counsel for the petitioner and APP for the State. 2 The petitioner is the mother-in-law of the deceased. She had filed an application for discharge before the trial court under Section 227 of the Cr.P.C. The application was rejected by the Sessions Court. Being aggrieved by the said order, the petitioner has filed this petition. 2 Crim.WP.No.1836/2010 3 The learned Counsel for the petitioner has invited my attention to the statements of witnesses and has submitted that on the date of the incident when the deceased committed suicide, she was not present in the house. He also invited my attention to a note written by the deceased which was found in his pocket in which he has made allegations against his wife, his brother-in-law and no reference is made about any assault by the present petitioner. 4 It is not possible to accept the submission of the learned Counsel for the petitioner. Perusal of the statement recorded by the police clearly indicates that the specific allegations have been made against the present petitioner that she had harassed the deceased along with other members of the family. That being the position, it is not possible to accept the submission of the petitioner. At this stage, in view of the material which is on record, therefore, the application for discharge 3 Crim.WP.No.1836/2010 cannot be granted. 5 Writ Petition, accordingly, is dismissed. (V.M. KANADE, J.)
