Delhi HC: Mere Breakup Not Enough for Abetment to Suicide

• Delhi High Court states that merely breaking up may not amount to instigation for abetment of suicide.
• Justice Manoj Jain made the observation while granting bail to a man accused of abetting his former partner's suicide.
• The court noted that instigation should be such that it leaves the deceased with no option but to commit suicide.
• There was no dying declaration, and the parties were in an 8-year relationship with no prior complaints.
• The court observed a considerable time gap between the breakup and the suicide, suggesting it was a case of a broken relationship.
