named Narender (deceased) aged about 25 years was married about three years ago with Smt. Sudesh (one of the accused). Prior to the marriage, said Sudesh used to stay with her parental aunt (Bua) named Sukhbiri alias Sukho in Kot Mohalla, Sonipat and had even studied there. After marriage, Sudesh used to stay in the matrimonial home for 10-15 days and then would stay at the place of her parental aunt for 1-1/2-2 months. Whenever Sudesh used to come, she was followed by her cousin (Bua's son) namely Mukesh. Said Mukesh under the influence of liquor used to beat Narender by asserting that Sudesh was his (Mukesh's) wife, Sudesh used to take sides with him and thus he was misusing the relationship of brother-sister. It was further narrated by the complainant that when the deceased caught them red handed, he tried to plead with both of them but they did not pay any heed. Rather Mukesh called accused Smt.Sukhbiri and Narender's brother-in-law named Parmod and all of them had beaten Narender. They also threatened Narender that they will force him to commit suicide. By stating so, they took away Sudesh with them. Later on, after three months, Narender had brought back his wife Sudesh. One week later i.e. on 7.9.2006, Mukesh and Sukhbiri came there and took away Narender and Sudesh with them on the protest of performing some religious ceremony at Panipat but they along with Parmod and some outsiders beat him up. After this incident, Narender started behaving like a mental person and he used to murmur that "Mukesh", you had destroyed me by snatching my wife. Compelled by all these circumstances,
