SC: Can’t Assume that Dowry & Gifts Given During Marriage are Entrusted to Parents-in-Law of Bride - (30 Aug 2024)

CRIMINAL

SC has reiterated the position that giving dowry and traditional presents at the time of the wedding does not raise a presumption that such articles are thereby entrusted to the parents in-law so as to attract the ingredients of Section 6 of the Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961.
