Question And Answer


1 Acc. To me above grounds are not as such sufficient to decide the guilty of accused but
they can be little sufficient against accused.

Grounds -
1- As the father of Gauri made a statement in FIR that she was happy during her father in
law lifetime but after his death suddenly she was asked for 20 lakhs rupees for
Electronic shop and Bike.
2- Gauri never came to Jodhpur ( her Fathers house ) after death of Bheem Singh as well
as she never sounds happy on the phone calls.
3- Gauri came to Jodhpur alone during her 7 month pregnancy, which could be special
ground against Accused that a lady should not travel alone during her pregnancy of 7 or
8 months, there must be 1 person present at the time of travelling from Isarda to
jodhpur.
4- Threaten to not to give birth to girl child, if she does so then she will not allow to enter
in In Laws house.
5- When she give birth to girl child no one was came and see her.
6- When she went back to Isarda, then it was difficult to talk to Gauri.
7- The main point is that if Gauri commit suicide at 7 AM then why Raghvendra had called
Charan singh after 14 hour, even other members of family may call him after that
situation. It is not possible that neighbor of Raghwendra is also in shock .
8- Female members saw the bruises on the body of the Gauri which proves that there may
be some violence had been done on Gauri.
9- One of the Main Evidence is that Gauris elder sister Mamta received a call from Gauri
at 7:45 AM from Raghwendra MN
