DATE : 26th MARCH, 2010 P.C.: 1 The State of Maharashtra has filed this appeal being aggrieved by the order of acquittal dated 28th August, 2009 passed by the learned III Additional Sessions Judge, Thane in Sessions Case No. 433 of 2007. By the impugned judgment and order, accused 1 and 3 i.e. husband and mother in law have been convicted, however, accused 2 father in law, has been acquitted. The State is aggrieved by the 2 acquittal of accused 2, the father in law. 2 We have heard learned APP for the State. So far as the role of accused 2 is concerned, the evidence on record indicates that he had only quarreled with the deceased in the morning and had left the home. When the incident took place, he was not in the house. There is no evidence to indicate that he is concerned with pouring kerosene and setting the deceased on fire. In the circumstances, in our opinion, he is rightly acquitted. The view taken by the trial Court is a reasonably possible view. No interference is called for. 3 Leave refused. 4 Appeal dismissed.
