On the alleged offence of abetment of suicide, the FIR must disclose instigation, intentional aid, or another active proximate role. Mere commercial dispute, non-payment allegations, or a suicide note naming persons as responsible for dues, without more, do not satisfy those ingredients. On the face of the FIR, the essential elements of abetment were not shown, so interim protection was warranted pending further proceedings. en-us Fri, 27 Nov 2020 00:00:00 +0530 Fri, 06 May 2022 17:46:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=293414 A High Court hearing a quashing petition under Articles 226 and 227 and Section 482 CrPC must consider the merits prima facie and may grant interim protection where liberty is at stake; it cannot refuse to examine the matter merely because regular bail under Section 439 is available.
