Yes Vincent I was not sure about that... but this pod structure look alike one of Malvaceae.... so just guessed.

Dear Ashish Nimkar, I know Roselle. If you mean what is shown at n.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roselle_(plant), this is not Roselle and, besides, no part of this plant is edible. This plant is much smaller.

Can be Roselle of Hibiscus family...
