Justice Harnaresh Singh Gill took note of the fact that the wife of the petitioner had died by suicide within four years of their marriage, and that the police had found that the death had not occurred under normal circumstances.
Thereafter, a first information report (FIR) for the offences of cruelty and dowry death was registered against the father of the child.
“The petitioner, who is accused of having driven his wife to commit suicide, cannot be granted any equitable relief, when it comes to handing over him the custody of the minor child.”
