section 494/498A/120B IPC and his three sisters for the offence under section 120
B IPC. It appears to have rightly discharged the other accused persons for the
alleged offences except accused Poonam who should also have been charged under
section 120B IPC along with three sisters of accused K.D. Kapoor.
