Delhi court convicts man in attempt to commit culpable homicide case
Additional sessions judge Hem Raj convicted Bijender Singh under Section 308 (attempt to commit culpable homicide) of IPC.
The police had booked him under Section 307 (attempt to murder) of IPC.
His wife Sangeeta alleged that he tried to strangulate her in an inebriated state using her chunni or scarf on September 22, 2021.
On July 16, the court said Sangeeta specifically deposed that she felt severe pain in her neck due to strangulation.
'It is not the prosecution's case that any vital internal part of the body of the injured sustained any injury which may result in her death. Even the doctor who examined the injured in the present case specifically deposed that the patient was hemodynamically normal," the court said.
When a patient was hemodynamically stable, the court said, it meant their blood pressure and heart rate were stable, indicating good blood circulation.
Noting the evidence before it, the court said though it was proved that Singh tried to strangulate his wife, his act was not under the ambit of IPC Section 307.
'When a person is charged with an offence consisting of several particulars and a combination of only some of the particulars constituting a minor offence is proved, then he can be convicted of the minor offence with which he may not have been charged," the order said.
The sentencing against the man was posted on August 5. PTI MNR MNR AMK AMK

Arrested Bangladeshi woman used fake documents to get Aadhaar, voter ID cards
Kolkata, The arrested Bangladeshi woman, who was working as a crew member of an airline company and was also a small-time model in the neighbouring country, had entered India a few months ago using a valid passport and started staying at a rented accommodation in Kolkata, a Kolkata Police officer said on Thursday. Arrested Bangladeshi woman used fake documents to get Aadhaar, voter ID cards Shanta Paul, the Bangladeshi woman, who was arrested earlier this week, with fake Indian documents like Aadhaar card, had travelled to multiple cities in India as a crew member of an airline of the neighbouring nation, he said. "Initial probe revealed that the woman was trying to travel to several foreign countries but could not manage to do so from Bangladesh. So, she chose to come to India and travel to foreign countries using Indian documents. She took calculated steps for the purpose. She rented a room in Park Street and used that address to get a ration card with the help of an agent," the police officer told PTI. From there, she shifted to a rented flat in the southern part of the city's Bikramgarh area and from there got in touch with another man and managed to secure fake Aadhaar card and voter ID card, the officer said, adding that they were trying to find out which documents did she use to get the accommodation in Park Street. "She then applied for an Indian passport using all these fake documents. During verification, the woman was called by the officers of the Golf Green Police Station and at that time, she failed to produce her birth certificate and also could give proper answers regarding her family members," he said. Suspecting something "fishy", a complaint was lodged at the Park Street Police Station by the Anti Rowdy Section of Kolkata Police after they got the report from the Golf Green Police Station. Eventually a raid was conducted by the ARS section of the city police this Monday when they seized several documents including Bangladeshi passports issued in her name, an employee ID of Regent Airways , an admit card of Dhaka's education board, he said. It was during this raid that several Indian identification documents including Aadhaar cards, voter IDs, and ration cards were also seized, he added. Police said that they were also trying to spot who all had helped her in getting the fake Indian documents and whether there was any "help" from any police personnel during the verification process. A post on her social networking account, however, showed photographs of her "exposing" a man possessing both Aadhaar card and an identity proving him to be a Bangladeshi national. "All those posts were made by the woman as a part of her strategy to prove herself to be an Indian who was possessive about her nation's security and well-being. We are talking to her to find out more about the matter," he added. This article was generated from an automated news agency feed without modifications to text.
