in case your name features in accused, you have to secure bail first. thereafter, gather evidence to disprove the allegations. if ur hubby was facing mental health issues, ur case gets more strength. if police still charges you, you can defend before court.

In order to bring a case within the purview of Section 306 IPC there must be a case of suicide and in the commission of the said offence, the person who is said to have abetted the commission of suicide must have played an active role by an act of instigation or by doing certain act to facilitate the commission of suicide. Therefore, the act of abetment by the person charged with the said offence must be proved and established by the prosecution before he could be convicted under Section 306 IPC.
