Dowry and Suicides

Dowry deaths should be punished by criminal laws governing murder. Drafters should consider whether to punish dowry deaths as a specific offense or make the presence of dowry demands and dowry-related violance an aggravating factor in sentencing. Should drafters choose to punish dowry deaths as a specific offense, legislation should impose penalities that are commensurate with other first-degree murders.
