Harassment Must Be Proximate to Suicide for Abetment Liability | Sec 306 IPC (Abetment of Suicide) : Gujarat HC
Gujarat High Court quashed an FIR under Sections 306 and 107 IPC, ruling that mere harassment without a proximate act or specific intent cannot constitute abetment of suicide. This narrows the scope of criminal liability for alleged harassers and safeguards individuals from frivolous suicide-abetment prosecutions.
