The
Gautam Budh Nagar district court on Wednesday acquitted Munish Dalal
and his family members in the 2003 Nisha Sharma dowry case.
Nis to marry Munish alleging that his family members had
made a dowry demand the previous night.
The
court of Chief Judicial Magistrate Vipin Rai, while dismissing the
charges against the four accused, observed that Nisha’s decision to call
off her wedding was pre-planned.
In
May 2003, Munish, his mother Vidya Dalal and aunt Savitri Sharma were
booked in a police case after Nisha alleged that the family demanded Rs
12 lakh as dowry. The court in its order said there was
“insufficient evidence to prove that the demand... had been made by the
Dalal family a night before the wedding”.
The
court also acquitted Nisha’s classmate Navneet Rai, who was also booked
on the charge of giving false documents against Nisha.
The
court ruled that Nisha was close to Navneet Rai and had wished to marry
him instead of Munish.
Nisha’s family had also approached Navneet for the marriage but when
the proposal did not work, her marriage was fixed with Munish. Nisha who
was not happy with her marriage then levelled false allegations of
dowry demand.

Dowry is the problem...? or the solution for dowry is the problem...?
DOWRY when the name comes every one start hating the person. But the bad part is that nobody try to stop it. Because it was a "pratha " but have today became greed. In this case we don't know the truth but it is a weapon which can be use by both.
