BELIM KARIMMIYA MATUMIYA vs STATE OF GUJARAT AND ANR HOME DEPARTMENT — Crl.A. No. 1107/2015

Case Summary: Crl.A. No. 001107/2015 - Belim Karimmiya Matumiya v. State of Gujarat The Supreme Court partly allowed the appellant's appeal against a 2013 High Court judgment in a 1986 assault case. The appellant was convicted for attacking witness Hasmukh Chaganlal with a scythe, causing only an incised wound without fracture. The Court found that having already served four months imprisonment under Section 323 IPC and considering the appellant was not among those who pursued the main victim (who died before trial), the punishment was sufficient. The High Court's judgment was set aside, and the appellant's bail bond was discharged. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
