This judgment by a single bench of the High Court of Orissa disposed of the CrLCMC petition hearing an appeal regarding charge framing. The Court held that a framed charge for a higher offence does not prevent conviction for a lesser offence and declined to interfere at this stage.
The CrLCMC petition was disposed of without interference in the matter.
