No Custodial Interrogation Post-Charge Sheet in Suicide Case | Bail Granted Under Kapil Wadhawan Guidelines : Allahabad HC

The Allahabad High Court granted bail to a father-in-law in a dowry-related suicide case, holding that once a charge sheet is filed, custodial interrogation is no longer justified under Supreme Court guidelines on jail overcrowding and procedural fairness. This reinforces that mere familial association, without concrete evidence, cannot sustain pre-trial detention when investigation is complete and no flight risk exists.
