A bare perusal of the provision of 336 PPC manifests that intention to cause hurt or knowledge that he is likely to cause hurt, is necessary requirement to constitute offence punishable under Section 336 PPC which prima facie, is missing in this case. In consideration of the facts mentioned above, I am of the opinion that the culpability of the petitioner for an offence punishable under Section 336 PPC yet requires determination by the learned trial court which makes this case one of further inquiry into petitioner’s guilt.
