Your friend doesn't deserve clemency.......................
He should be brought to books...........................and should serve a generous term.
Lot of debts but did marry..................And also seemingly didn't to take precausions as well ....ALTHOUGH... he had CLEAR intensions of NO progeny.
What does he think of abortion methods?
It's not like "trifala choorna" taken in night before and in the morning it's 'all clear' . In Abortion woman's life is subjected to danger...woman's womb is literally punctured and depending on the deveopment stage of the foetus it gets complicated more and more.
Probably your friends wife won't be able to conceive or unfortunately may face difficulies if she takes another chance of progeny.
At least humans have developed the techniques to salvage/remove dead foetus in the womb....and humans are able to take out that fom the womb but it makes a lot of damage to females body.....abortion is the last and resort to save life of woman first and not as an "method" of "family planning".....
You friend deserves to be for 304 and 302 as well and many other section in IPC.
All other female animals like cows, dogs, wilder beasts (in africa...watch discovery channel) simply die carrying the dead foetus which rots inside creates poison.
