IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA Cr.Misc. No.20609 of 2008 NAGESHWAR SHARMA Versus STATE OF BIHAR - - - - 3. 1.9.2008 Heard. The allegation against the petitioner is that he poured the acid on the person of the informant causing injuries to him on that account. When the Bhabhi of the informant, namely, Douna Devi intervened to save him the petitioner threw acid causing injury to the lady also. The injury reports appear attached to the case diary. The informant had multiple brownish black burn wounds over face, neck, front at chest, right knee, left thigh and left leg at variable sizes ranging from ¼”X ¼’ to 3”X2” and the injuries reported were superficial. The Doctor has found the injury caused was permanent destruction of face and as such grievous. As regards Douna Devi she had two brownish black superficial red burn wounds each measuring ¼”X1/4” over right side of nose and one brownish black superficial burn wound of size 2 ½” over right side of 2 abdomen and the injuries were found simple. The contention is that there is land dispute and on that account the allegation against the petitioner has been made falsely and that the petitioner is a retired Military personnel and has filed a counter case also. Be that as it may, considering the nature of the allegation and the injuries I am not inclined to direct the release of the petitioner on bail. The petition is dismissed. Kanth ( Dharnidhar Jha, J.)
