JUDGMENT : Heard on admission. 2. The respondent has been acquitted under Section 306 of IPC by the impugned judgment dated 01.05.2013 passed by Additional Sessions Judge, Ambah, district Morena in Sessions Trial No.169/2011. 3. On perusal of the record, it is found that the accused caught the hands of Punam and took her to the room and outraged her modesty. The accused also threatened to kill her if she lodges any report. When the deceased was alone at home, deceased committed suicide by hanging herself. 4. The learned trial Court having analyzed the evidence found that there is no evidence that the deceased was abetted by the accused to commit suicide. The actions of the deceased committing suicide is not the direct result of the commission of offence by the accused. He may have committed other offences which are not subject of this trial but his actions cannot amount to abetment to commit suicide. In this regard, Mahinder Singh Vs. State of M.P., 1995 AIR SCW 4570 and Smt. Swati Jha & Others Vs. State of M.P., 2010 Part I MPWN 101 can be referred. 5. On the basis of the above discussion, it is not a fit case to grant leave to appeal. The application filed under Section 378 of Cr.P.C. by the applicant/State is rejected.
