LR -10 Perhaps some police reforms are needed in Mysterious Suicides of Girls often seen taking place regularly in smaller towns and villages of India.
If you will analyse news stories of such suicides you may find that
1) The girl was suspected to have illicit relations with few rich peoples. It means that after registering such suicide in accident register, the police gets power "to inquire several rich suspects" in connections with Mysterious suicide.
2) You may also see that in most such cases, parents of girl are either poor or too weak to complain.
3) You may also find that after a month or so, after inquiring with rich suspects, the police closes case without registering FIR and without report to Courts.
4) You may also see that after few months, such Suicides keep repeating.
These Suicides are unusual.
The police reforms can be made either by State Govts, or by High Courts or by Supreme Court.
But unfortunately, there is usually no factual data available to Courts and the parents are too weak to complain.
The mysterious Suicides will continue to remain Mysterious till some law reforms happen in India.
