The petitioner, a 19 years old young person faces allegations under Section 302 IPC. The crux of the allegations against him is that on 29.4.07 he allegedly stabbed the deceased who succumbed to such injury suffered by him. Prior animosity arising out of the alleged illicit relation between the mother of the petitioner and the victim is the alleged motive. It is also the case of the prosecution that the petitioner had also suffered injuries in the course of the same incident. The FIR was registered. Investigation is in progress.
