Being         aggrieved,      appellants\/accused           have<\/p>\n<p>preferred this appeal under Section 374(2) of the Code of<br \/>\n Criminal Procedure.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.     The prosecution case, in short, is that on 11.08.92<\/p>\n<p>in the evening appellants were playing with Rajesh<\/p>\n<p>(deceased) in the cattle pound of village. Appellants<\/p>\n<p>returned to their home but deceased did not. Father of<\/p>\n<p>the    deceased    Harilal(PW-1)   during   search    asked<\/p>\n<p>appellant Babloo regarding deceased but he did not give<\/p>\n<p>any information. Munnulal(PW-2) peon of Kanji House,<\/p>\n<p>when went in cattle pound to care cattles he saw the<\/p>\n<p>dead body of Rajesh there. Munnulal(PW-2) lodged marg<\/p>\n<p>intimation to Police Station Barela. Marg was registered<\/p>\n<p>vide No. 30\/92. During the investigation of marg dead<\/p>\n<p>body was sent to post-mortem. Dr. D.K. Sakalle<\/p>\n<p>performed the autopsy on the dead body and opined that<\/p>\n<p>death was due to strangulation.\n<\/p>\n<p>4.     It was further alleged that on 11.8.92 deceased<\/p>\n<p>was last seen together with the appellants. Appellants<\/p>\n<p>were    arrested   and   they   were   sent   for    medical<\/p>\n<p>examination. Dr. Bajpai(PW-12) found simple injuries on<\/p>\n<p>their hands.\n<\/p>\n<p>5.     After usual investigation appellants\/accused were<\/p>\n<p>charge-sheeted.\n<\/p>\n<p>6.     The appellants abjured their guilt and pleaded false<\/p>\n<p>implication.\n<\/p>\n<p>7.     On appraisal of evidence on record, the learned<br \/>\n Additional Session Judge found them guilty of the<\/p>\n<p>offence under Section 304 II of IPC and convicted and<\/p>\n<p>sentenced, as mentioned hereinabove.<\/p>\n<p>8.      Learned counsel for the appellants submitted that<\/p>\n<p>there is not eye witness in this case. Prosecution based<\/p>\n<p>on circumstantial evidence. Firstly circumstance of last<\/p>\n<p>seen together is not proved beyond reasonable doubts.<\/p>\n<p>Secondly mere recovery is not evidence enough to<\/p>\n<p>convict appellants. Thirdly injuries found on the person of<\/p>\n<p>appellants was 6 to 7 days old and according to Dr.<\/p>\n<p>Girish Bajpai(PW-5) those could have been caused by<\/p>\n<p>fall. In the circumstances, trial Court failed to appreciate<\/p>\n<p>the evidence on record in its proper perspective.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore prays for setting aside the finding and<\/p>\n<p>sentence recorded by the trial Court.<\/p>\n<p>9.      On the other hand, learned Panel Lawyer justified<\/p>\n<p>and supported the finding recorded by the trial Court.<\/p>\n<p>10.     It is true that there is no direct evidence in this<\/p>\n<p>case.     Prosecution    case    is     based   on    three<\/p>\n<p>circumstances :-\n<\/p>\n<p>(i)     The deceased was seen last together with the<\/p>\n<p>appellants.\n<\/p>\n<p>(ii)    Recovery of Rs. 30\/- from the appellant no.<\/p>\n<p>1\/accused.\n<\/p>\n<p>(iii)   Injuries found on the person of appellants\/accused<br \/>\n remained unexplained..\n<\/p>\n<p>11.   It was not disputed that Rajesh(deceased) died<\/p>\n<p>homicidal death. Dr. D.K. Sakalle(PW-6) performed<\/p>\n<p>autopsy on the dead body on 13.8.92. He found 8 injuries<\/p>\n<p>on the body of deceased and opined that cause of death<\/p>\n<p>was due to strangulation i.e. throttling therefore, it is<\/p>\n<p>proved that Rajesh died homicidal death.<\/p>\n<p>12.   The prosecution examined as many as 13<\/p>\n<p>witnesses to substantiate his case. Mahesh(PW-3) and<\/p>\n<p>Santosh(PW-7) are witnesses to the fact of last seen<\/p>\n<p>together.\n<\/p>\n<p>13.   Mahesh(PW-3) is the brother of deceased and he<\/p>\n<p>deposed     that   appellant\/accused   Babloo(A-2)   taken<\/p>\n<p>Rajesh(deceased) with him after calling him from the<\/p>\n<p>house. He further deposed that when he went to throw<\/p>\n<p>ash he saw that his brother Rajesh and both appellants<\/p>\n<p>were in the kanji house. He further deposed that when he<\/p>\n<p>was returning he listened the sound of damadam. When<\/p>\n<p>Rajesh was not returned in night, on third day dead body<\/p>\n<p>of Rajesh found in the kanji house. But the facts like<\/p>\n<p>appellant\/accused Babloo taken his brother with him after<\/p>\n<p>calling from the house and he listened the sound of<\/p>\n<p>damadam from the kanji house and Rajesh(deceased)<\/p>\n<p>was playing in the parchhi of kanji house were not found<\/p>\n<p>place in his statement recorded under Section 161 of<br \/>\n Cr.P.C.(Ex.D-2). There are material improvement before<\/p>\n<p>the Court which goes to the root of the case.<\/p>\n<p>14.    One more thing is observed that when Rajesh was<\/p>\n<p>not returned to home in night and according to witness<\/p>\n<p>Mahesh(PW-3) his mother and father were searching<\/p>\n<p>Rajesh in night. If Mahesh had seen him in the kanji<\/p>\n<p>house then it should be natural for him to narrate this fact<\/p>\n<p>to his parents and would have been inspected kanji<\/p>\n<p>house then and there. In these circumstances, reliance<\/p>\n<p>can not be placed on his testimony.\n<\/p>\n<p>15.    Santosh(PW-7) deposed that when he was going<\/p>\n<p>with   Mahesh(PW-3)       to    his    new   house    he   saw<\/p>\n<p>Rajesh(deceased) was playing with appellants\/accused<\/p>\n<p>in kanji house. He admitted that at that time other<\/p>\n<p>students of school were also playing near by to the kanji<\/p>\n<p>house. Santosh(PW-7) claims that he went with Mahesh<\/p>\n<p>(PW-3) but this fact was not deposed by Mahesh. In this<\/p>\n<p>way presence of this witness became doubtful with the<\/p>\n<p>Mahesh. Further more according to him, when he saw<\/p>\n<p>deceased was playing with the appellants, at the same<\/p>\n<p>time, other students of the school were also playing near<\/p>\n<p>by the Kanji house. In these circumstances, fact of last<\/p>\n<p>seen    together   seen        by     Santosh(PW-7)   became<\/p>\n<p>immaterial.\n<\/p>\n<p>16.    Further, Harilal(PW-1) deposed that when he was<br \/>\n searching his son Rajesh(deceased), he enquired from<\/p>\n<p>the appellant\/accused Babloo(A-2) but he did not say any<\/p>\n<p>thing to him. He further deposed that when police asked<\/p>\n<p>Babloo then he disclosed that he, Ramesh and          and<\/p>\n<p>Rajesh were playing. But he went to his home and<\/p>\n<p>Ramesh(A-1) was continued to play with Rajesh. This<\/p>\n<p>second pat of his statement is not admissible in<\/p>\n<p>evidence. Because this fact was claimed to be narrated<\/p>\n<p>before the police officer. Regarding first part that<\/p>\n<p>appellant\/accused Babloo(A-2) did not disclose any thing<\/p>\n<p>to Harilal can not clinch the issue unless, one start with<\/p>\n<p>the presumption that the appellants had committed the<\/p>\n<p>crime.\n<\/p>\n<p>17.      R.S. Patel(PW-13), Investigating Officer, deposed<\/p>\n<p>that he seized money at he instance of appellant<\/p>\n<p>Ramesh(A-1) from the corner of kanji house vide (Ex.<\/p>\n<p>P-4) and some other money was scattered on spot vide<\/p>\n<p>Ex. P-10.\n<\/p>\n<p>18.      Panch witnesses Munnulal(PW-2) Ganesh Prasad<\/p>\n<p>(PW-4)       both    of   them    not    supported    that<\/p>\n<p>appellant\/accused Ramesh(A-1) disclosed any thing<\/p>\n<p>before them. They only deposed that there was a seizure<\/p>\n<p>from      appellant\/accused    Ramesh(A-1).    In    these<\/p>\n<p>circumstances,        money      was     concealed     by<\/p>\n<p>appellant\/accused Ramesh(A-1) remained doubtful and<br \/>\n mere seizure of money from the spot can not said to be<\/p>\n<p>clinching   evidence     against    the   appellant\/accused<\/p>\n<p>Ramesh(A-1).\n<\/p>\n<p>19.   Dr. Bajpai(PW-12) deposed that he examined<\/p>\n<p>appellant\/accused Ramesh (A-1) on 16.8.92 and found<\/p>\n<p>abrasion on the root of little and middle finger, semicircle<\/p>\n<p>2 mm on size. It was simple in nature and caused by<\/p>\n<p>hard and blunt object like nail mark and was 4 to 5 days<\/p>\n<p>old. He further deposed that he examined Babloo (A-2)<\/p>\n<p>on the same and found :- (i) abrasion size 3&#8243; x 1 cm on<\/p>\n<p>the rout of the nail, (ii) Abrasion on upper lip, 2x2mm, (iii)<\/p>\n<p>contusion on forehead 3&#215;2 mm, (iv) abrasion 2&#215;2 mm on<\/p>\n<p>post aspect of palm. All were simple in nature and could<\/p>\n<p>be caused by hard and blunt object. Injury no. 4 may be<\/p>\n<p>caused by nail of finger. Duration was 4 to 5 days. He<\/p>\n<p>admitted that injury on the head may be caused by fall or<\/p>\n<p>my be caused by stone. He further admitted that he did<\/p>\n<p>not mention the colour of abrasion in his reports Ex. P-6<\/p>\n<p>and P-19 and he further admitted that injuries could be 6<\/p>\n<p>to 7 days old. He further admitted that they may be<\/p>\n<p>caused by thorn during the cutting of bari.<\/p>\n<p>20.   Learned Panel Lawyer vehemently argued that<\/p>\n<p>appellant failed to assign any explanation regarding their<\/p>\n<p>injuries during their statements under Section 313 of<\/p>\n<p>Cr.P.C. and they only stated ignorance. On the contrary<br \/>\n learned counsel for the appellant argued that they had<\/p>\n<p>explained their case through cross examination of expert<\/p>\n<p>witness Dr. Bajpai.\n<\/p>\n<p>21.   Dr. Bajpai(PW-5 and 12) admitted that he did not<\/p>\n<p>mention the colour of the injuries, also duration of injury<\/p>\n<p>may be 6 to 7 days and they may be caused by thorn. In<\/p>\n<p>these circumstances it can not be said that accused<\/p>\n<p>persons failed to explain their injuries. Both the<\/p>\n<p>appellants are students of school, after finishing school<\/p>\n<p>they were playing here and there and they might receive<\/p>\n<p>such type of abrasion during their play. Hence this<\/p>\n<p>circumstance is also not clinching evidence, against the<\/p>\n<p>accused persons.\n<\/p>\n<p>22.   As discussed hereinabove circumstances of last<\/p>\n<p>seen together is not proved beyond reasonable doubts<\/p>\n<p>and other circumstances also not found proved beyond<\/p>\n<p>reasonable doubts. Therefore, I am of the opinion that<\/p>\n<p>the trial Court erred in appreciating the evidence in their<\/p>\n<p>proper perspective, therefore finding recorded by trial<\/p>\n<p>Court is unsustainable and liable to set side.<\/p>\n<p>23.   Resultantly, appeal succeeds. The finding and<\/p>\n<p>sentence recorded by trial Court is set aside and<\/p>\n<p>appellants\/accused acquitted to the charge under<\/p>\n<p>Section 304 II of IPC<\/p>\n<p>24.   The appellant are already on bail, their bail bond<br \/>\n and security bond stands cancelled.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>                                      (G.S.
