Acting on a complaint of Lalita Devi wife of Bishamber Dass alleging therein that the accused persons namely Ravi Kumar, Ravinder Kumar and Kuldeep Kumar sons of Chandu on February 27, 2004 attacked her husband and inflicted blows with a toka in his abdomen and also took away Rs.10, 000 from his pocket, the Police registered a case u/s 307/341/34 RPC and 4/ 25 Arms Act. During the course of investigation it was found that a case u/s 294 RPC against accused Ravi Kumar was pending in the Court of law and accused was compelling the injured to withdraw the same and due to that accused was nourishing animosity against the injured. Having failed in making the injured to agree for the settlement of that case, accused Ravi Kumar made up his mind to liquidate him along with his brothers. JNF
