HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT ALLAHABAD CRIMINAL REVISION No. - 1447 of 2026 Court No. - 87 HON'BLE ABDUL SHAHID, J. 1. Heard learned counsel for the revisionists and learned A.G.A. for the State. 2. The present criminal revision has been filed against the order dated 22.01.2026 passed by the learned Sessions Judge, Kannauj, in Sessions Trial No. 536 of 2025 ( State of U.P. v. Riyaz and others), arising out of Case Crime No. 209 of 2024, under Sections 333, 115(2), 110, 351(2), and 352 of the B.N.S., Police Station Indergarh, District Kannauj. 3. Learned counsel for the revisionists submitted that the impugned order dated 22.01.2026 is neither a speaking nor a reasoned order and is not justifiable; therefore, it is liable to be set aside. An application had been filed seeking discharge of the revisionists under Section 110 of the B.N.S. It is contended that the ingredients of Section 110 of the B.N.S. are not attracted in the present case and that the revisionists are liable to be discharged. Section 110 of the B.N.S. reads as follows: "Section 110. Attempt to commit culpable homicide.—Whoever does any act with such intention or knowledge and under such circumstances that, if he by that act caused death, he would be guilty of culpable homicide not amounting to murder, shall be punished with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to three years, or with fine, or with both; and, if hurt is caused to any person by such act, shall be punished with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to seven years, or with fine, or with both." 4. Learned counsel for the revisionists has relied upon the injury report of the injured Yusuf, which reflects the following injuries: "Medicological injury report: 1. LW 3x1 cm (+) over Rt. side frontal aspect of skull swelling 4x3 cm (+) fresh bleeding (+). 2. Contusion 3x1 cm (+) over Lt. side of neck joint below Lt. ear colour red.

Learned counsel for the revisionists submitted that there was a delay of 17 days in the X-ray report; the medical report was prepared by one doctor while the statement was recorded by another; and, therefore, the injury report is unreliable. It is further submitted that reliance has been placed on findings recorded at the stage of bail and that no offence under Section 110 of the B.N.S., 2023 is made out. It is also submitted that the next date fixed before the trial court is 27.02.2026 for framing of charge. Learned counsel further submitted that the statement of Dr. Praveen Kumar records treatment of injured persons Sunaina and Mulayam, which is contrary to the present case, as per the F.I.R., the injured is Yusuf. It is, therefore, submitted that the impugned order is liable to be set aside and the criminal revision be allowed. 6. Per contra, learned A.G.A. for the State submitted that there is no mandatory requirement of any specific type of injury for framing a charge under Section 110 of the B.N.S., 2023. The injured Yusuf sustained several injuries, including a fracture. There is neither any illegality nor irregularity in the impugned order, and the criminal revision is liable to be dismissed. 7. It is settled law that any observations made at the stage of grant of bail are not to be considered at the stage of trial.
