2/3 Asha Asruba Jaibhay. Asha is survived. Asha is the wife of present Applicant. Marriage took place about 12 years ago. On the date of incident on 9th October, 2014 her previous two statements were recorded by the Police and the Special Executive Magistrate. If those statements are seen, it is clear that dispute arose between the husband and the wife and in the rage of anger, the Applicant has poured kerosene on her person and set her on fire, is the allegation in these two statements. She suffered 54% burn injuries. [4] Present Applicant is in jail since 18th December, 2014. In view of fact that, there is no possibility of offence being converting into more graver one and charge sheet is already filed, further custodial presence of the Applicant is not warranted. That leads me to pass the following order :-
