5. Now the second petitioner is trying to shed crocodile tears, that she is having a child to take care of.

The suicide note reveals that there was illicit relationship between the petitioners and of course, it has got to be investigated in detail by the Investigating Officer. Whether the ingredients of Section 306 and 107 are attracted or not, is a matter for investigation and it can be brought to light in the course of trial.

6. Taking note of the fact that the second petitioner and the brother of the deceased, who is the first petitioner herein, had illicit relationship, this Court is not inclined to grant the relief sought by the petitioner and the petition is dismissed.
