Dying Decleration is very much available in Section 32 of The Evidence Act. So the accused person will get a punishment of about 10years jail. You can also check Section 306 of IPC. It is clearly written there about Abetment of Suicide. You should lodge an FIR immediately without any further delay in your nearest Police Station.
