suspension of sentence and grant of bail.
The appellant has been convicted for the following offences :
Conviction U/s Sentence Fine Default (in lieu of fine) 306 of IPC 7 years RI 5,000/- 6 months RI
The allegations against the appellant are that she was objecting
to the relationship of the deceased with one Rahul and on the date of
the incident the appellant and co-accused had scolded the parents of
the deceased with regard to her whereabouts. It is submitted that
since, the appellant was regularly objecting to the relationship of the
deceased with Rahul, therefore, she committed suicide by jumping in
front of the running train.

of the judgment passed by the Co-ordinate Bench of this Court in the
case of Deepak Vs. State of M.P. reported in 1993 (2) MPJR 328,
the allegations may not amount to abetment of suicide. The appellant
