It was also recorded that father of the victim had given an application on 13.06.2025, however, he subsequently refused to come and based upon the post mortem report, the FIR of the case in question was lodged. 4. Learned counsel for the applicant drew my attention to the post mortem report, which reports the cause of death as anti-mortem strangulation, however, hyoid bone was found to be intact as is evident from the post mortem report. In light of the said, it is further argued that even as per the statement of the father of the deceased, she committed suicide.
