The accused caused bodily pain, disease or infirmity. But it is cognizable, bailable or compoundable. What offence, if any, has been committed by the accused ?

  • A.Voluntary causing grievous hurt as per Section 322 IPC.
  • B.Voluntary causing serious hurt as per Section 325 IPC.
  • C.Voluntary causing grievous hurt by dangerous weapon as per Section 324 IPC.
  • D.Voluntary causing grievous hurt by dangerous weapon as per Section 326 IPC.

Answer: B

The key takes the offence as voluntarily causing hurt of the serious kind under Section 325 of the IPC, which is option B. The description of cognizable, bailable and compoundable matches Section 325 as shown in the First Schedule of the Criminal Procedure Code, where the offence is compoundable with the permission of the court.

Section 322 defines voluntarily causing grievous hurt, and Sections 324 and 326 deal with hurt by dangerous weapons. They carry other consequences, so A, C and D are not the key.
