5. Enmity cuts both ways and the pendency of the partition suit will not be a ground for discharge.

6. The injury report submitted by the private hospital cannot be rejected. Investigating agency has found the injury report reliable and therefore, chargesheet has been submitted and now the discharge application has been rejected.

7. It has been held that at the time of framing of charge, prosecution records are to be seen and not the defence (Ram Prakash Chadha Vs. The State of Uttar Pradesh reported in 2024 SCC Online SC 1709).

8. In view of the above, this application is dismissed. (Sandeep Kumar, J) Saif/- U T
