Legal Question in Criminal Law in India

A women has committed suicide ,

And the suicide note blames person in the family.

There are 3 or 4 are accused with different blames which has happened before 2 years.

Can Police arrest raise and FIR for this & Arrest some one with Suicide note alone (No evidence are available).

I Think this comes under Domestic violence Act if so does Limitation Act applies to Domestic violence Act in India?

If suicide note relates to abatement of suicide, then police may register an offence under section 306 IPC and arrest.

It can be taken as dying declaration of the woman and depending on result of investigation the police will take action.
