IN THE HIGH COURT OF BOMBAY AT GOA CRIMINAL REVISION APPLICATION NO. 23 OF 2010 MR. SANTOSH NAIK, THROUGH NEXT FRIEND AND WIFE, MRS. SIYA NAIK ... Petitioner Versus STATE, THROUGH THE PUBLIC PROSECUTOR AND ANR., ... Respondents Shri Arun Bras De Sa, Advocate for the Applicant. Shri C. A. Ferreira, Public Prosecutor for the Respondents. Coram:- N. A. BRITTO, J. Date:- 29th June, 2010 P.C.:- Heard. Charge has been framed against the accused under Sections 307, 353 I.P.C. There is no dispute that on 28-2-2010 Police Constable Rajesh along with one Prasanna Bhagat and Suraj Ballikar had gone to the house of the accused in search of him. The allegation is that at that time the accused took out the knife from his pant pocket and forced it towards the chest of the said Prasanna and in the process of avoiding the said knife by the said Prasanna the same got hit on the right hand and left thigh of the said Prasanna. The said Prasanna when subsequently examined by the Medical Officer was found with three incised wounds on the right palm, left groin and inner aspect of left middle thigh, respectively. The learned Assistant Sessions Judge has framed the charge against the accused under Section 307 I.P.C. It appears that the accused had aimed the knife at the chest, a vital part of the body, of the said Prasanna and from that intention and knowledge to murder could be attributed to the accused, and, therefore framing of charge under Section 307 I.P.C. is in order. There is no case for interference made out in this revision application. Application therefore is hereby dismissed. It is made clear that the observations made herein are only for the purpose of disposing off the revision petition. N. A. BRITTO, J. RD.
