Despite your wife passing away dowry case will go on. If the court after due inquiry satisfies itself that dowry allegations of your late wife are proved you'd be sentenced to fine and jail term. If not you'd be let off.with a clean chit.

As the complainant and main witness has expired, charges are not likely to be proved.

Despite the fact your wife and unborn child have passed away during labour pains, you have the only option to contest the case(s) filed against you through a local prudent lawyer.
