Case No. 60 of 2013 under Sections 323, 308, 452, 304, 504, 506 I.P.C. (State Vs. Ravi Raghav) rejecting the application of revisionist seeking him to be declared as juvenile.

It was asserted therein that his date of birth in the High School Certificate is 10.10.1995 as such on the date of incident i.e. on 6.8.2013 his age was 17 years 7 months and 28 days. The first informant opposed the application alleging that in the present incident out of four accused persons accused Kapil is younger to accused applicant and he has been provided bail by Sessions Court. It is also asserted that father of the applicant was convicted under Section 307 I.P.C. for seven years imprisonment and mother is facing trial under Section 379, 366, 307 I.P.C. It was also asserted that date of birth of accused applicant in Class 6, 7 and 8 has been mentioned as 10.1.1994 so on the date of incident he was 19 years 4 months and 28 days. On this ground application was prayed to be rejected. That application was rejected by the Board vide order dated 17.6.2014.
