The petitioner is said to have assaulted on the neck of the informant by means of Farsa inflicting injury on his neck and damaged the fence and set ablaze the house of the informant along with other co-accused persons.

Learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that no such occurrence as alleged ever took place. Petitioner has been falsely implicated in this case. Allegation of damaging the fence and torching the house of the informant alleged against the petitioner is not specific rather general and omnibus in nature.

Patna High Court CR. MISC.

Though, the opinion is reserved on 23.10.2016 but no supplementary injury report has been brought on record by the prosecution even after passing away of six months. Petitioner has no criminal antecedent.
