JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) Heard learned counsel for the
revisionists and the learned A.G.A. appearing for the State.
(2.) In this case, the revisionists were initially charge-sheeted under Ss. 323, 504,
506, I.P.C. in Case Crime No. 731-A of 2001,
but later a charge has been framed against
them also under S. 307, I.P.C. It is contended
by the learned counsel for the revisionists
that the said application has been made by
way of counter-blast to a charge-sheet,
which was submitted against the opposite
party No. 2 and others at the instance of
the revisionists under Ss. 308, 323, 504 and
506, I.P.C.
(3.) Learned counsel for the revisionists
has confined his prayer to the effect that
the revisionists be permitted to continue on
the same bail subject to their furnishing
fresh bail bonds to the satisfaction of the
Magistrate concerned. Although by order of
the Additional District Judge (Fast Track
Court No. 5), SaharAnpur dated 21-10-2004
the charge is to be framed in this case under S. 307, I.P.C. however, as the allegations
were that the fire that was made by the accused did not
cause any injury to the victim, hence for this offence under S. 307,
I.P.C., the maximum punishment is only up
to 10 years R.I. as a punishment up to imprisonment for life is provided only when
"hurt is caused to any person by such act."
This is not the allegation in the present case.;
