ORDER

The Text below is only a summarized version of the order pronounced

High Court acquitted the respondent of the offence u s 302 IPC while retaining the convictions and
sentences for the other offences. On an appeal by the state SC held that there was a material

the allegation against the Respondent was of beating. Thus, court gave benefit of doubt and
dismissed the appeal.
