11 The learned counsel for Respondent informant has
submitted notes of arguments, in which the provisions of Sections 107
and 306 of the Indian Penal Code are mentioned. He has produced
copies of citations like AIR 2001 Supreme Court 3837, (Ramesh
Kumar Vs. State of Chhattisgarh) and AIR 2011 Supreme Court 1238,
(M. Mohan Vs. State). In both the matters, the wife of the accused
had committed suicide. In the first matter, there was possibility of use
of Section 113A and 113B of the Evidence Act and from that angle the
facts were considered by the Apex Court. In the second matter, the
provisions of Sections 306 and 107 of the Indian Penal Code are
considered. In the second matter while interpreting Section 107 of the
Indian Penal Code, the Apex Court has made it clear that there has to
be clear mens-rea to commit offence and conviction cannot be
sustained without positive act on the part of accused to instigate or aid
in committing suicide. In the present matter, there is no question of
using of presumptions, which are made available under Sections 113A
and 113B of the Evidence Act.
