We find that the judgment of the High Court is perfectly in accordance with law. The respondentaccused was not on active duty when the alleged incident took place and he was, therefore, not triable under Section 80 read with Section 4 of the Border Security Force Act. There is also no record to show the same.
The Appeal stands dismissed.
