Not in a literal way, no. He still is to blame for her suicide. Should he left Antigone be after her appropriate burial of her brother, she would never had chosen death as an escape that she would not be facing.

No, Haemon is not a loyal son to Creon in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Prince Haemon starts out trying to be loyal to his father, King Creon. But Creon plans to execute Princess Antigone, Haemon's first cousin and betrothed. Haemon passionately loves Antigone and finds the execution unacceptable. He therefore expresses disloyalty by opposing his father's non-burial edict, supporting Antigone's civil disobedience and even trying to kill Creon.

What does Creon do to Antigone in 'Antigone'?

Sentence her to death is what Creon does to Antigone in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone deliberately breaks a royal edict recently issued by King Creon, her uncle and intended father-in-law. Creon tends to have a negative attitude towards women in general and towards Antigone in particular. Nevertheless, Antigone does nothing to try to get Creon to pardon her or give her a sentence other than death.
