"प्रत्यक्ष या अप्रत्यक्ष रूप से उकसाने के स्पष्ट सबूत होने चाहिए," सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने कहा है कि आत्महत्या के लिए उकसाने के अपराध के लिए किसी को दोषी ठहराने के लिए केवल उत्पीड़न पर्याप्त नहीं है. #SupremeCourt #Harassment #Suicide https://t.co/mPUeKmIvP2
The Supreme Court of India has ruled that mere harassment is insufficient to establish guilt in cases of abetting suicide. The court emphasized that there must be clear evidence of direct or indirect incitement to hold someone accountable for such an offense. This ruling comes amid the ongoing Atul Subhash controversy, highlighting the need for substantial proof beyond harassment alone. Additionally, the court addressed the powers of the Enforcement Directorate (ED), stating that it cannot dictate the actions of public prosecutors in court. This decision underscores the judiciary's stance on the necessity of concrete evidence in serious allegations.
