Dhanpat vs State Of Haryana on 3 July, 2008<\/div>\n
      IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT\n                      CHANDIGARH\n\n\n                               Criminal Appeal No. 168-DB of 1999\n\n                                     Date of Decision: July 03, 2008\n\n\nDhanpat.\n\n                                                          ...Appellant\n\n                               Versus\n\nState of Haryana.\n\n                                                        .. Respondent\n\n\nCORAM:      HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE ADARSH KUMAR GOEL,\n            HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE S.D. ANAND.\n\n\nPresent :   Ms. Anju Arora, Advocate,\n            as Amicus Curiae,\n            for the appellant.\n\n            Mrs. Naveen Malik, Addl. Advocate General, Haryana,\n            for the respondent.\n\n\nS.D. Anand, J.\n<\/pre>\n
            The prosecution allegation, upheld at the trial, was that<\/p>\n
the appellant belaboured and poisoned his wife Mst. Sumitra to<\/p>\n
death. The occurrence was witnessed by PW5 – Ravita alias Indro<\/p>\n
and PW6 – Kavita who are daughters of appellant himself. The fact<\/p>\n
that deceased died on account of poison was confirmed by the FSL.<\/p>\n
It is in the testimony of PW5 – Ravita alias Indro that the appellant<\/p>\n
initially belaboured former’s mother and that she and her sister i.e.<\/p>\n
Kavita (PW6) came out of the room into the Verandah (where they<\/p>\n
sat on a cot) on account of a threat held out by her father (appellant)
\n Crl. Appeal No. 168-DB of 1999                                         2<\/span><\/p>\n
that they would be done to death in case they raised an alarm. The<\/p>\n
appellant held out that threat to them when they tried to come to the<\/p>\n
rescue of their mother.          It is in her testimony that “thereafter my<\/p>\n
father bolted outer gate of the house and then bolted the room from<\/p>\n
inside. Thereafter my father opened a bottle of spray and poured it<\/p>\n
into a boul (baatki).”       After having said that, she averred that<\/p>\n
“thereafter my father sat on my mother and threatened to kill her if<\/p>\n
she moved and thereupon he poured that spray in mother’s mouth<\/p>\n
after holding her nose. We had seen father doing so through slits of<\/p>\n
the door. Thereafter me and my sister both started crying and after<\/p>\n
some time both of us fell asleep.” It is further in her testimony that<\/p>\n
she and her sister woke up at about 7.00 a.m. in the morning. They<\/p>\n
tried to converse with their mother but the latter did not respond.<\/p>\n
Thereafter, they went to the house of their uncle (elder brother of the<\/p>\n
appellant – Hardutt) and told him that their mother was lying dead<\/p>\n
and that their father was not available in the house. Her statement is<\/p>\n
almost in accord with the testimony of PW6 – Kavita who was found<\/p>\n
by the learned Trial Court to be a competent child witness. Hardutt<\/p>\n
was not examined at the trial.\n<\/p>\n
             The testimony of PW5 – Ravita and PW6 – Kavita does<\/p>\n
not inspire confidence. If they had been turned out of the room, they<\/p>\n
would not have been able to witness the pouring of the poison by the<\/p>\n
appellant into the mouth of his wife.          Assuming, for the sake of<\/p>\n
arguments, that PW5 – Ravita and PW6 – Kavita had actually seen<\/p>\n
the appellant pouring poison into the mouth of their mother through<\/p>\n
the door and they had brought that fact to the notice of their maternal
\n Crl. Appeal No. 168-DB of 1999                                     3<\/span><\/p>\n
uncle, he would have stated so to the police in the course of his<\/p>\n
statement under Section 161 Cr.P.C. He did claim to have been so<\/p>\n
told by his nieces (PW5 – Ravita and PW6 – Kavita) but he was<\/p>\n
confronted with his statement Ex.PF where this fact was not found<\/p>\n
mentioned. He could not offer any explanation for the omission of<\/p>\n
that very relevant fact.\n<\/p>\n
             The conduct of PW5 – Ravita and PW6 – Kavita also<\/p>\n
does not inspire confidence. Out of them, Ravita is not a child. She<\/p>\n
claims to have very well understood the connotation of the act of<\/p>\n
pouring of spray into the mouth of her mother by holding her nose. If<\/p>\n
children of that age group find that their father has done the averred<\/p>\n
act, they would not have been expected to go to sleep during night,<\/p>\n
particularly when it is their own testimony that their father i.e. the<\/p>\n
appellant left the house thereafter.\n<\/p>\n
             The defence presentation that the possibility of the<\/p>\n
deceased having herself consumed poison under the stress of<\/p>\n
adverse circumstances cannot altogether be ruled out. It is proved<\/p>\n
on the record that the appellant and the deceased were tried in a<\/p>\n
murder case.       The deceased was acquitted. The appellant was<\/p>\n
convicted. He was on bail under the orders of this Court. On the<\/p>\n
relevant date, he came home under the influence of liquor and<\/p>\n
demanded money from the deceased. He got enraged on account of<\/p>\n
the absence of a favourable response from his wife. It would well be<\/p>\n
that the stress of circumstances (i.e. a convicted husband who was a<\/p>\n
big boozer and wanted her to procure money for his day-to-day<\/p>\n
expenditure) forced the deceased to get away by ending her life.

             In the light of foregoing discussion, the appeal shall stand<\/p>\n
allowed. The impugned finding of conviction shall stand set aside.<\/p>\n
The appellant shall stand acquitted of the charge.<\/p>\n
