Submitted that only the &#8220;chhapra&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>that too a roof portion made of dry grass was burnt which not used as<\/p>\n<p>residence and no other article damaged &#8211; the act cannot come within<\/p>\n<p>purview of Section 436. Reliance placed on 2000 (2) R.C.C.1163 Narain<\/p>\n<p>Lal v. State of Rajasthan. Also submitted that appellant remained in<\/p>\n<p>custody for about five months and incident 22 years older and appellant<\/p>\n<p>who then was above 45, now around 70.\n<\/p>\n<p>      Learned Public Prosecutor submitted that named witnesses in FIR<\/p>\n<p>PWs 2, 3 and 5 are neighbour or residing nearby state of litting the hut by<\/p>\n<p>appellant.\n<\/p>\n<p>      Thoughtfully considering arguments perused record and judgment<\/p>\n<p>impugned.\n<\/p>\n<p>      As per lodged report Ex.P1 and also testimony of complainant PW<\/p>\n<p>1, at the time of incident he was not there and out to village Akoli, about<\/p>\n<p>20 km from the village.\n<\/p>\n<p>      ASI PW 7 who inspected the place of on 11.8.97 states that above<\/p>\n<p>roof like hut made of grass and wood like material was burnt and coat<\/p>\n<p>mattresses etc. lying in the hut were not burnt, neither was any sign of<\/p>\n<p>any damage to articles. Thus, the inference is that only dry grass like<\/p>\n<p>visitation were destroyed. It also transpires from the evidence that it was<\/p>\n<p>of height not more than 7-8 ft.\n<\/p>\n<p>      Complainant Pahlad PW 1 deposed that he was out to village Akoli,<\/p>\n<p>where in morning came Sardara and told him of litting by Baksa, so he<\/p>\n<p>soon came and then with Ganesha and Bhika went to Baksa and asked<\/p>\n<p>him fot it   who, first denied, then accepted and then denied before<\/p>\n<p>village Panchayat, so he lodged report at police station in evening.

The State of Rajasthan)<\/p>\n<p>age    were home at the time of incident and that the coats and other<\/p>\n<p>house hold goods valuing Rs.400-500\/- were also destroyed. PW 1 denies<\/p>\n<p>that father of appellant is brother-in-law of father of complainant, but so<\/p>\n<p>seems to have been accepted by PW 2. PW 1 also denies of PW 2 being<\/p>\n<p>son of co-brother of father which is straightly accepted by PW 2. PW            1<\/p>\n<p>admits that house of appellant is 7-8 houses after his house and in<\/p>\n<p>cross-examination, states that no house-hold articles burnt or destroyed.<\/p>\n<p>Ganesha PW 2 depose that when he sleeping in side house, on hearing<\/p>\n<p>barking of dogs, woke up saw that appellant was litting and setting the<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;chhapra&#8221; by a match box ran way then on his shouting came Bhikha,<\/p>\n<p>Parsa &amp; Ghewa and          others   from village who all pouring water,<\/p>\n<p>extinguished       fire, otherwise entire house-hold would have been<\/p>\n<p>destroyed. PW 2 states that he narrated the entire incident to Pahlad who<\/p>\n<p>came in early morning, then he (Ganesha), Bhikha and Pahlad went to<\/p>\n<p>house of Baksa, where appellant was not and Bag Singh who was there<\/p>\n<p>told   them that he will make understand Baksa. As per PW 2, as the<\/p>\n<p>appellant even after telling of Bag Singh, did not understand obey heed<\/p>\n<p>so the complainant reported matter to police. In cross-examination, PW 2<\/p>\n<p>stating ignorance of Gewa the father of appellant being brother-in-law of<\/p>\n<p>father of complainant and that the coat and bed were also burnt. PW 2<\/p>\n<p>clearly states that waking up, he observed appellant running away and in<\/p>\n<p>between house of this witness and complainant is a chest high wall. If<\/p>\n<p>the witness observed appellant running, then obviously, he did not see<\/p>\n<p>him setting hut to fire.\n<\/p>\n<p>       Bhikha PW 3 deposed that he in night was out to house of Bhuta<\/p>\n<p>for getting ginjected and when coming back, saw appellant running away<\/p>\n<p>from house of complainant Pahlad. PW 3 further says that on shouting of<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                       5<\/span><br \/>\n                                                    S.B.Criminal Appeal No.440\/88<br \/>\n                                                   (Baksa v. The State of Rajasthan)<\/p>\n<p>Ganesha, 50-60 persons assembled and doused fire. As per PW 3                   he<\/p>\n<p>takes injection in a month or two and no medicine shop is in the village<\/p>\n<p>and when he reached there, Ganesha was shouting and &#8220;chhapra&#8221; was on<\/p>\n<p>fire. If this be so, then evidence as given by Ganesha is shattered. Again,<\/p>\n<p>strangely PW 2 though taking injection in a month or two, was out for this<\/p>\n<p>well beyond mid-night with no particular reason. PW 3 further says that<\/p>\n<p>Ganesha told and asked him running away of Baksa. For the reason<\/p>\n<p>mentioned above, testimony of PW 3 Bhika canot be believed and it also<\/p>\n<p>questions veracity of PW 2. Parsa PW 5, named person in the FIR, state<\/p>\n<p>that he     sleeping in house and waking        up on shouting of Ganesha<\/p>\n<p>observed that appellant running away from there. In cross-examination,<\/p>\n<p>state that first arrived Ganesha, then he arrived after 20 minutes, by that<\/p>\n<p>time fire was doused by assembled 15-20 persons of village. PW 5 in<\/p>\n<p>cross-examination says that when he was going towards hut, he observed<\/p>\n<p>appellant running away. Paras PW 5 further says that next day he did not<\/p>\n<p>have any conversation with complainant.\n<\/p>\n<p>       Per depositions of witnesses, seems that Ganesha reached after<\/p>\n<p>arrival of his   and Bhikha &#8211; PW 3 was much away from the place of<\/p>\n<p>incident.   Complainant   and   PW    2   are   co-brothers.     According       to<\/p>\n<p>complainant, he with Ganesha and Bhikha went to Baksa but &#8211; Bhikha<\/p>\n<p>denies going to appellant. It also appears that panchayat was held and<\/p>\n<p>the appellant did not accept any such act by him.\n<\/p>\n<p>       Evidence, as above, is not confidence inspiring one. It cannot be<\/p>\n<p>held as proved that it was the appellant who lit the hut. No one definitely<\/p>\n<p>did see appellant doing so or spontaneously running.           As is observed,<\/p>\n<p>burnt was &#8220;chhapra&#8221; of dry grass etc.<\/p>\n<p>       For the reasons above,        no offence is proved to have been<\/p>\n<p>committed by the appellant and he deserves to be acquitted.<br \/>\n<span class=\"hidden_text\">                                     6<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>                                                 S.B.Criminal Appeal No.440\/88<br \/>\n                                                (Baksa v.
