Dowry death is a grave criminal offense under Section 304B of the Indian Penal Code. It applies when a woman dies an unnatural death within seven years of marriage, and it is proven that she was subjected to cruelty or harassment in connection with dowry demands by her husband or his relatives. This law is meant to safeguard women from dowry-related abuse and ensure strict punishment for offenders.<\/p>\n

Key Legal Aspects of Dowry Death Cases<\/h5>\n

Presumption under Evidence Act<\/strong> \u2013 If a woman dies under unnatural circumstances within 7 years of marriage, and there is evidence of dowry-related harassment, courts presume dowry death.<\/p>\n

Cruelty & Harassment (Section 498A IPC)<\/strong> \u2013 Often coupled with Section 304B for dowry death cases.<\/p>\n

Bail & Arrest<\/strong> \u2013 Stringent provisions apply, as dowry death is a non-bailable and cognizable offense.<\/p>\n

Investigation & Trial<\/strong> \u2013 Police must conduct a thorough investigation, and trials are often held in sessions courts.<\/p>\n
