3 09-02-2011 Heard learned counsels for the appellants in all

these three appeals which arise out of a common

judgement whereby the appellants have been convicted

u/s 302/34 of the IPC and sentenced to R.I. for life and

also u/s 27 of the Arms Act for which they have been

convicted R.I. for one year.

Submissions were advanced that allegations of

the witnesses make out only a case of general and

omnibus firing by the accused persons and it was

specifically argued on behalf of three appellants of Cr.

Appeal no. 1346/2010 that these appellants were not

identified in court by the informant.

According to prosecution case, indiscriminate
2

firing led to death of four persons of the same family

inside the house and identification is by witnesses who

were inside the house as well as outside in the village.

There is more than two identification against the

appellants and in some cases the identification is by as

many as eight witnesses.

Considering the nature of the occurrence and

identification available against the appellants, the prayer

for bail is rejected at this stage.
