Annexure-D<\/p>\n<p>final report shows that the only witness who<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">Crmc 453\/10               4<\/span><\/p>\n<p>was cited     to speak against the petitioner  or<\/p>\n<p>the part played by the petitioner, is the said<\/p>\n<p>Nazar. Though recovery of the gold chain was<\/p>\n<p>made, it was from the first accused. Hence even<\/p>\n<p>if that recovery is accepted it would only<\/p>\n<p>connect first accused with the offence and not<\/p>\n<p>he petitioner. No other witness was cited to<\/p>\n<p>show that petitioner was     there along with the<\/p>\n<p>first accused. It is on this basis, learned<\/p>\n<p>counsel appearing for the       petitioner argued<\/p>\n<p>that even if, petitioner is to be       tried, it<\/p>\n<p>would only be a futile exercise submitting that<\/p>\n<p>said Nazar, who is cited as CW1 is no more.<\/p>\n<p>           4. Learned Public Prosecutor submitted<\/p>\n<p>that      he was instructed that CW1 Nazar is now<\/p>\n<p>no more.\n<\/p>\n<p>           5. In such circumstances, question is<\/p>\n<p>when there is absolutely no material as against<\/p>\n<p>the petitioner, is he to be directed to stand<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"hidden_text\">Crmc 453\/10             5<\/span><\/p>\n<p>for trial, especially   when third accused  now<\/p>\n<p>stands acquitted. When there is absolutely no<\/p>\n<p>material to establish that petitioner committed<\/p>\n<p>any of the offences alleged and it is clear<\/p>\n<p>that consequent to the death of CW1 Nazar, even<\/p>\n<p>if, petitioner is to be tried, there is no<\/p>\n<p>likelihood of a successful prosecution, it is<\/p>\n<p>not in the interest of justice to continue the<\/p>\n<p>prosecution.\n<\/p>\n<p>           In such circumstances, petition   is<\/p>\n<p>allowed.
