Delhi High Court Woman Crying Does Not Prove Dowry Harassment | The High Court said- the cry of the woman, the dowry does not prove to be harassment: the sister of the deceased said- was crying on the phone; Husband and family acquitted

The Delhi High Court said during the hearing in a case- just because a woman was crying, it cannot be considered a case of dowry harassment. Justice Nina Bansal Krishna dismissed the petition, which challenged the decision to acquit the husband and her family from allegations of dowry harassment.

The High Court said, there is no evidence of death due to cruelty in this case. The postmortem report stated the cause of death pneumonia. Death occurred due to natural causes. Therefore, there is no case of harassment under Section 498A IPC.

Now understand the whole matter…

The family of the deceased alleged that he spent about 4 lakh rupees in the wedding. Later, husband and in -laws asked for a motorcycle, cash and gold bracelet.

The trial court acquitted the accused (husband and family) due to pneumonia due to the woman’s death. The relatives of the deceased went to the High Court against this decision.

The High Court also said during the hearing that the woman’s father neither mentioned any special incident nor proved that he had given money. Only by making allegations does not prove to be a case of dowry harassment.
