However, the said court acquitted Bombale’s brother and father of the murder charge and merely held them guilty under section 324 (causing hurt by dangerous weapons) and section 325 (grievous hurt) of the Indian Penal Code.

The bench observed while taking into consideration nature of weapon, site of the body targeted, the court is of the considered opinion that said blow though single, has turned out to be fatal.
