---- Respondent _________________________________________________________ For Applicant : Shri Abhishek Sharma, Advocate.

For Respondent/State : Shri Anant Bajpai, Panel Lawyer.

Hon'ble Shri Justice Chandra Bhushan Bajpai Order On Board 28.08.2017 Heard the matter finally.

2.

The applicant has preferred this application for grant of bail as he was arrested on 18/05/2017, in connection with Crime No. 92/2017, registered in Police Station Ambagarh Chowki, Distt. Rajnandgaon (C.G.) for offecnce punishable under Section 326 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC).

3.

Learned counsel for the applicant submits that after investigation police had filed charge-sheet which is pending before the Judicial Magistrate First Class Raipur, Ambagarh Chowki Distt. Rajnandgaon (C.G.)as Criminal Case No. 381/2017. Learned counsel for the applicant would further submit that the applicant is

the first offender and no criminal antecedent has been reported against him. As per the allegation, on account of some family dispute applicant poured Kerosene and also set a blazed his wife, thereafter she herself attempted to save her, though in the process she received burn injuries at her hand, thigh and waist then she was taken for treatment, admitted in the hospital from 13/04/2017 to 17/04/2017. As per Doctor's report burn injuries were 15 per cent and as per the opinion of the Doctor the injuries were fatal to life if not treated immediately, and the injuries were grievous in nature. The applicant will not commit any offence in future, as the trial may take some time for its conclusion, he may be enlarged on bail till trial. 4.

Per Contra, learned counsel for the respondent/State opposes the arguments advanced on behalf of the applicant and would submit that the injury received was grievous in nature, fatal to life and co-incidently she could save herself otherwise percentage of injuries would have gone higher. Hence looking to the facts in the present matter the instant MCRC may be dismissed. 5.

Perused the matter.

6.

As the applicant is the first offender, he is in custody for 3 month 20 days till date, charge-sheet has been filed, trial may take some time, though the facts surfaced is of serious nature but looking to the entire facts including percentage of burn injuries and fact that after 17/04/2017, it was never reported that the injured ever readmitted in the hospital or any further complication arises with the wounds, after consideration of the entire facts, I am inclined to grant an opportunity to the applicant so that he will not commit any offence in future and shall remain peacefully in the society without

committing any crime.

7.

Consequently, instant MCRC is allowed.

8.

The applicant is directed to be released on bail on his furnishing a personal bond in the sum of Rs.50,000/- with two solvent sureties each of Rs.25,000/- to the satisfaction of the JMFC Ambagarh Chowki, Distt. Rajnandgaon (C.G.), for his appearance before the said Court regularly as and when directed by the said Court.
