In short, the prosecution case is that on 19.3.2002 at about 8 O&#8217; clock in<\/p>\n<p>the morning when Halkeram (PW7) and Yeshwant (PW8) were going towards<\/p>\n<p>Hiragarhi, they passed from front of the house of accused. Accused invited<\/p>\n<p>them to his house and served them liquor. Accused then asked his wife<\/p>\n<p>Muliyabai to serve lunch, but she did not do it. Being annoyed accused<\/p>\n<p>assaulted his wife with lathi. When Halkeram and Yeshwant tried to intervene,<\/p>\n<p>he also attempted to assault them, whereupon they left his house.                   This<br \/>\n                                (2)                              Cr.A.1343\/2002<\/p>\n<p>incident was witnessed by Abdul Kadir (PW6) also.       As a result of injuries,<\/p>\n<p>Muliyabai died. On 20.3.2002 at about 7.00 A.M. Abdul Kahar (PW1) went to<\/p>\n<p>the house of accused and saw Muliyabai dead.         He went to police station<\/p>\n<p>Kindrai and lodged first information report Ex. P\/19. A merg intimation Ex. P\/1<\/p>\n<p>was also recorded.\n<\/p>\n<p>3.      Head Constable Santram Tiwari (PW10) along with his staff went to the<\/p>\n<p>house of accused and conducted inquest. He recorded injuries found on the<\/p>\n<p>body of Muliyabai in inquest report Ex. P\/3. Next day morning i.e. 21.3.2002<\/p>\n<p>dead body of Muliyabai was sent for postmortem examination to Community<\/p>\n<p>Health Centre, Ghansaur.     Dr. S.C.Jain (PW11) conducted the postmortem<\/p>\n<p>examination and found six injuries on the body caused by hard and blunt<\/p>\n<p>object. Fourth, fifth, eleventh, and twelveth ribs of the left side were found<\/p>\n<p>fracture. Spleen of the deceased was also ruptured. Death was homicidal in<\/p>\n<p>nature. After investigation, charge sheet was filed and the case was committed<\/p>\n<p>for trial.\n<\/p>\n<p>4.      Accused pleaded false implication. According to him, deceased had<\/p>\n<p>consumed liquor. Under the spell of liquor, she had fallen down on woods and<\/p>\n<p>stones and contracted injuries which resulted into her death.<\/p>\n<p>5.      Prosecution examined Abdul Kadir (PW6), Halkeram (PW7) and<\/p>\n<p>Yeshwant (PW8) as eye witnesses of the incident. Halkeram and Yeshwant did<\/p>\n<p>not support the prosecution case. However, relying on the evidence of Abdul<\/p>\n<p>Kadir (PW6) and finding his evidence corroborated by the evidence of Dr. S.C.<\/p>\n<p>Jain (PW11) trial Judge held the accused guilty and convicted and sentenced<\/p>\n<p>him under Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code.\n<\/p>\n<p>6.      Smt. Durgesh Gupta, learned counsel for the appellant submitted that<\/p>\n<p>eye witnesses Halkeram (PW7) and Yeshwant (PW8), who are said to be<br \/>\n                                (3)                              Cr.A.1343\/2002<\/p>\n<p>present in the house of accused did not support the prosecution case. Abdul<\/p>\n<p>Kadir (PW6), who resided at some distance from the house of accused, in fact<\/p>\n<p>did not see the incident, but falsely implicated the accused in the case. His<\/p>\n<p>evidence was not reliable. Learned counsel further submitted that in view of<\/p>\n<p>the evidence on record and the nature of injuries found on the body of<\/p>\n<p>deceased, the conviction of accused under Section 302 of the Indian Penal<\/p>\n<p>Code was not justified. Since there was no evidence on record to indicate that<\/p>\n<p>accused intended to cause death of his wife, at the most accused could have<\/p>\n<p>been held liable for the offence under Section 304-II of the Indian Penal Code.<\/p>\n<p>Accused had been in custody since about 8 years. On the other hand, Shri<\/p>\n<p>S.K.Rai, learned Govt. Advocate for the State contended that the evidence of<\/p>\n<p>Abdul Kadir (PW6) was fully reliable. The contradictions found in his statement<\/p>\n<p>were in fact not material. There was sufficient evidence against the accused<\/p>\n<p>and the trial Court rightly convicted the accused under Section 302 of the<\/p>\n<p>Indian Penal Code.\n<\/p>\n<p>7.    It is true that alleged eye witnesses Halkeram (PW7) and Yeshwant<\/p>\n<p>(PW8), who were admittedly present in the house of deceased, did not support<\/p>\n<p>the prosecution story. According to them, deceased was not present in the<\/p>\n<p>house, therefore, they did not see the incident. Their evidence apparently is of<\/p>\n<p>no help to prosecution. However Abdul Kadir (PW6) categorically stated that<\/p>\n<p>when he was present in his `Badi&#8217; he heard accused asking for food from his<\/p>\n<p>wife. He saw Muliyabai running out of the house and accused chasing her<\/p>\n<p>wielding a lathi. Accused assaulted Muliyabai with lathi, due to which she fell<\/p>\n<p>down. Accused repeatedly assaulted her with lathi. Thereafter, he went inside<\/p>\n<p>the house. Though, certain contradictions were pointed out by learned counsel<\/p>\n<p>for the accused in the statement of this witness, but in our opinion they were<br \/>\n                                  (4)                                Cr.A.1343\/2002<\/p>\n<p>not on material parts of the prosecution story and did not effect the credibility<\/p>\n<p>of this witness. There appeared no reason for this witness to have falsely<\/p>\n<p>implicated the accused for causing death of his wife. Trial Court after closely<\/p>\n<p>appreciating the evidence of this witness, rightly concluded that his evidence<\/p>\n<p>was trustworthy. The evidence of this witness is also corroborated by the<\/p>\n<p>evidence of Dr. S.C.Jain (PW11), who performed the postmortem examination<\/p>\n<p>of the body of deceased. As per postmortem examination report Ex. P\/17-A, he<\/p>\n<p>found following injuries on the body of deceased:\n<\/p>\n<p>(i)     One contusion on left axillary region above ilium bone on 11th and 12th<\/p>\n<p>rib size 2&#8243;x1&#8243;,<\/p>\n<p>(ii)    bruise on the back of fourth left thoracic spine 1 1\/2&#8243;x1\/2&#8243;,<\/p>\n<p>(iii)   bruise on the back of seventh thoracic vertebra 2&#8243;x1.5&#8243;,<\/p>\n<p>(iv)    bruise on the left side of back on 10th thoracic spine 2&#8243;x1\/2&#8243;,<\/p>\n<p>(v)     bruise on left side of chest 2&#8243;x1\/2&#8243; &amp;<\/p>\n<p>(vi)    bruise on left arm near acromial angle 2&#215;1\/2&#8243;.\n<\/p>\n<p>        On internal examination, Dr. Jain found that 4th, 5th, 11th and 12th ribs of<\/p>\n<p>the left side of the deceased were fractured. Spleen was also ruptured. Cause<\/p>\n<p>of death of deceased was excessive haemorrhage and shock due to injury of<\/p>\n<p>spleen. The death was homicidal in        nature. The injuries were grievous in<\/p>\n<p>nature.\n<\/p>\n<p>8.      After examining the evidence of Abdul Kadir (PW6), the eye witness, in<\/p>\n<p>the light of evidence of Dr. S.C. Jain (PW11), we find that it is amply<\/p>\n<p>established that it was accused only, who had caused injuries to deceased<\/p>\n<p>which resulted into her death.\n<\/p>\n<p>9.      The next question before us is whether the accused was rightly<\/p>\n<p>convicted under Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code.\n<\/p>\n<p>                                 (5)                              Cr.A.1343\/2002<\/p>\n<p>10.    From the evidence of Abdul Kadir (PW6), it appears that the incident had<\/p>\n<p>occurred on a sudden altercation between the accused and the deceased for<\/p>\n<p>giving food to him. There is nothing on record to indicate that accused had any<\/p>\n<p>intention or motive to commit murder of his wife. The incident had occurred<\/p>\n<p>suddenly without any premeditation. Apart from it, none of the injuries found<\/p>\n<p>on the body of deceased was on any vital part of the body. Dr. Jain opined<\/p>\n<p>that the injuries were grievous in nature. The cause of death was haemorrhage<\/p>\n<p>by rupture of spleen.    In these circumstances, we are of the view that the<\/p>\n<p>conviction of appellant under Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code was not<\/p>\n<p>justified. However, since accused assaulted the deceased with lathi, it can be<\/p>\n<p>held that he had knowledge that by his act he was likely to cause death of<\/p>\n<p>deceased. Accordingly, the conviction and sentence of appellant under Section<\/p>\n<p>302 of the Indian Penal Code is set aside.       Instead he is convicted under<\/p>\n<p>Section 304-II of the Indian Penal Code.       It is on record that appellant is<\/p>\n<p>continuously   in   jail since 20.3.2002. Thus, he has already          suffered<\/p>\n<p>imprisonment for a period of about 8 years.       In these circumstances, he is<\/p>\n<p>sentenced to the period of custody already undergone by him. He be released<\/p>\n<p>forthwith if not required in any other case.\n<\/p>\n<p>11.
