Ahluwalia, J. held that in cases related to demand of dowry, general and vague allegations cannot be treated as sufficient material to prosecute the other relatives of the husband who otherwise, do not have anything to do with the family affairs of the complainant. It was observed that in order to prosecute the other relatives in a dowry case there must be some specific allegations against them.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The second respondent filed a case of harassment for dowry against her husband and her in- laws. however she also implicated her husband\u2019s near relatives i.e. elder brother-in-law and his wife etc. The present application was filed by the relatives of husband of second respondent claiming that they were falsely implicated merely because they are the near relatives of the accused husband. It was further submitted that no specific allegations have been made against them and only vague and omnibus allegations have been made in order to pressurize the accused husband. As these relatives of husband stand on different footing, therefore they should not be compelled to face the trial of Court unless any specific allegations have been made against them.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Considering the precedents laid down by the Supreme Court in the cases of <em>Kans Raj<\/em> v. <em>State of Punjab<\/em>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/LoginForNewsLink\/B71pxT20\">(2000) 5 SCC 207<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>Monju Roy<\/em> v.<em> State of West Bengal<\/em>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.scconline.com\/LoginForNewsLink\/G7dGGU8d\">(2015) 13 SCC 693<\/a>, the Court observed that it would not be correct to compel the applicants who are the near relatives of accused husband to face the agony of criminal prosecution on vague allegations under. The Court also stated that all general allegations leveled by the second respondent on the applicants appear to be indistinct with her only intention being to somehow prosecute and defame them. Therefore it is a clear case of over-implication on near relatives of the husband. Thus, charge-sheet and criminal prosecution of the applicants was quashed. [Sandeep Singh Bais v.
