SC: Filing a False FIR Alone does not Amount to Abetment of Suicide - (21 Aug 2026)

CRIMINAL

Supreme Court has held that filing an FIR or issuing a maintenance notice, even if later found false, does not by itself amount to instigation to suicide. The Court quashed the FIR against the deceased man’s in-laws, finding no ingredients of abetment to suicide.
