Retired Judge Giribala Singh has approached the Madhya Pradesh High Court seeking regular bail in a case involving dowry harassment and the death of her daughter-in-law Twisha Sharma.
The case was listed today (August 12) before the bench of Justice Ajay Kumar Nirankari but could not be reached.
An FIR has been lodged under BNS Sections 80(2) (dowry death), 85 (cruelty), and 3(5) (common intention) and Sections 3 (giving or taking dowry) and 4 (demanding dowry) of the Dowry Prohibition Act.
In her bail plea, Giribala claims that statements of doctors clearly provided that the deceased was suffering from depression.
