Bengaluru, Feb 22 (TIWN) The Karnataka High Court, in its order earlier this month, has directed that the Fifth Additional District and Session's court Judge of Mysuru should be sent to judicial academy for training in exercising judicial discretion.

A bench headed by Justice H.P. Sandesh, observed that the trial court failed to exercise judicial discretion and had passed perverse and capricious orders. “Since the orders are perverse and capricious, it requires interference by this court,” the bench observed.  The trial court has lost sight of the heinous offence that the lady, who was married in the year 2020 has lost her life within one year of marriage that too by burn injuries and the cruelty meted out to her in the matrimonial home. The lower court was also pulled up for ignoring the message sent by the deceased victim on the day of the incident, which is not less than a dying declaration.
