BNSS Section 306 | Threat of Atrocity Case Without Coercion or Direct Instigation Not Abetment of Suicide: Karnataka HC Grants Anticipatory Bail

The court granted anticipatory bail while imposing key conditions, reinforcing that abetment requires active encouragement or facilitation of the suicide.
