As per case facts, the complainant's sister, Sukhbir Kaur, was found dead after being allegedly strangled by her husband, Baljinder Singh, and his family due to dowry demands, shortly after ... their marriage. While other co-accused were acquitted, Baljinder Singh was convicted under Section 304-B IPC. He appealed, contending that the conviction was contrary to facts and law, prosecution evidence was unreliable, and his family had purchased the requested motorcycle independently, denying any dowry demands or maltreatment. The question arose whether the conviction of Baljinder Singh under Section 304-B of IPC was sustainable in the eyes of law. Finally, the High Court found that the conviction was based on legally admissible and credible evidence, supported by medical reports indicating homicidal strangulation. The court noted the appellant failed to rebut the presumption of dowry death under Section 113B of the Indian Evidence Act, affirming the trial court's decision to uphold the conviction but modifying the sentence by setting aside the fine.
