Balakrishnan Nair, J.\n<\/p>\n
      The appellant was the accused in S.C.No.312\/2005 on the<\/p>\n
file of the Additional District & Sessions Judge (Ad hoc), Fast<\/p>\n
Track Court – II, Pathanamthitta.\n<\/p>\n
      2. The prosecution case in brief is as follows:<\/p>\n
The appellant was the husband of deceased Prasanna. They fell<\/p>\n
in love and started living as husband and wife, after executing<\/p>\n
Ext.P17 registered marriage agreement. Since they belonged to<\/p>\n
two religions, Prasanna’s family was not happy with the<\/p>\n
marriage. Two female children were born to them. Thereafter,<\/p>\n
the parents of Prasanna were co-operating with them.       The<\/p>\n
appellant was in the habit of drinking liquor and physically<\/p>\n
abusing Prasanna. He was always pressing her for selling the<\/p>\n
property in her name. Because of the incessant harassment,<\/p>\n
she was staying with her parents. PW2 is her father and PW4<\/p>\n
Crl.Appeal No.68\/2006\n<\/p>\n
                               – 2 –\n<\/p>\n
is her mother. On 2.9.2002 at about 4.30 p.m., Prasanna and<\/p>\n
her elder daughter PW3 came rushing to the hall of the house of<\/p>\n
PW2 on the eastern side. The appellant brandishing a knife,<\/p>\n
chased Prasanna and inflicted an injury on her neck. It was<\/p>\n
followed by other stabs also.       PW2 intervened to save his<\/p>\n
daughter. He was also stabbed several times by the appellant.<\/p>\n
He fell down. PW3, the daughter of the appellant was watching<\/p>\n
this horrific       scene from behind a door. She and her<\/p>\n
grandmother PW4 cried out. The appellant ran away on seeing<\/p>\n
PW4. Hearing their cries, the neighbours, including PW6 rushed<\/p>\n
to the scene.        They took the injured to the Government<\/p>\n
Hospital, Adoor. Prasanna was pronounced dead and PW2 was<\/p>\n
rushed to the Medical College Hospital, Thiruvananthapuram.<\/p>\n
      3.    The Circle Inspector of Police, PW14 took over the<\/p>\n
investigation.     He held inquest on the dead body and seized<\/p>\n
MO1 clothes worn by Prasanna. Ext.P2 is the inquest report<\/p>\n
prepared by him. He also seized MO2 double dhoti, stated to<\/p>\n
be worn by the appellant at the time of occurrence. He sent the<\/p>\n
body for autopsy. He prepared the scene mahazar, questioned<\/p>\n
Crl.Appeal No.68\/2006\n<\/p>\n
                              – 3 –\n<\/p>\n
the witnesses and completed substantial portion of the<\/p>\n
investigation. The appellant was absconding after the incident.<\/p>\n
He was apprehended by the Panangad Police, Ernakulam on<\/p>\n
19.4.2005 in connection with the incident of outraging the<\/p>\n
modesty of a lady passenger in a private bus. On coming to<\/p>\n
know of the detention of the appellant, PW13, the S.I of Police,<\/p>\n
Adoor, as authorised by the C.I of Police, Adoor, arrested the<\/p>\n
accused.       PW15, the successor-in-office of C.I of Police<\/p>\n
completed the investigation and laid the charge before the<\/p>\n
Judicial First Class Magistrate’s Court, Adoor.      The learned<\/p>\n
Magistrate committed the case for trial by the Sessions Court,<\/p>\n
which in turn was made over by the Sessions Court to the<\/p>\n
Additional District & Sessions (Ad hoc)Court-II, Pathanamthitta.<\/p>\n
      4.    Charges were framed against     the accused for the<\/p>\n
offences under Sections 449, 302, 307 and 324 of the I.P.C by<\/p>\n
the trial court. He pleaded not guilty. The prosecution examined<\/p>\n
PWs. 1 to 15 and marked Exts.P1 to P22. Material Objects 1 to<\/p>\n
3 were produced and marked. The learned Additional Sessions<\/p>\n
Judge after hearing both sides, found the appellant guilty and<\/p>\n
Crl.Appeal No.68\/2006\n<\/p>\n
                              – 4 –\n<\/p>\n
sentenced him to undergo imprisonment for life for the offence<\/p>\n
under Section 302 and also to pay a fine of Rs.10,000\/- and in<\/p>\n
default, he was to undergo rigorous imprisonment for one year.<\/p>\n
For the offence under Section 307, he was sentenced to undergo<\/p>\n
rigorous imprisonment for seven years. For the offence under<\/p>\n
Section     449,    he was  sentenced    to  undergo    rigorous<\/p>\n
imprisonment for three years and also to pay a fine of Rs.3000\/-<\/p>\n
and in default, he was to undergo rigorous imprisonment for six<\/p>\n
months. The sentences were to run consecutively.<\/p>\n
      5.     Feeling aggrieved by the above conviction and<\/p>\n
sentence, the appellant has preferred this appeal. The appellant<\/p>\n
submitted that on the date of incident, PWs.2 and 4 were<\/p>\n
sleeping. Therefore, his wife Prasanna called him into the room.<\/p>\n
PW2 woke up and attacked him with a knife. The blow<\/p>\n
accidently fell on the deceased.      He escaped unhurt and<\/p>\n
remained underground, as he was afraid of the relatives of PW2.<\/p>\n
He was totally innocent. The learned counsel for the appellant<\/p>\n
submitted that the witnesses involved in this case were<\/p>\n
interested witnesses and PW3, the daughter of the appellant<\/p>\n
Crl.Appeal No.68\/2006\n<\/p>\n
                                – 5 –\n<\/p>\n
was tutored to give evidence against him. So, it is unsafe to<\/p>\n
sustain the conviction     based on the deposition of interested<\/p>\n
witnesses. The learned counsel for the appellant also pointed<\/p>\n
out that at any rate the substantive sentences imposed on the<\/p>\n
appellant should have been ordered to run concurrently. The<\/p>\n
direction that the sentences will run consecutively is unjustified<\/p>\n
because     one     of the  punishments  imposed    on   him    is<\/p>\n
imprisonment for life.    The learned Public Prosecutor, on the<\/p>\n
other hand, supported the judgment of the court below.<\/p>\n
      6.     PW9, the doctor who was working as Assistant<\/p>\n
Professor, Forensic Medicine and as Assistant Police Surgeon,<\/p>\n
Medical    College    Hospital, Thiruvananthapuram,    conducted<\/p>\n
autopsy on the body of Prasanna and issued Ext.P4 post-<\/p>\n
mortem certificate. The doctor has opined that the cause of<\/p>\n
death is injury No.1. The doctor has also stated that the injuries<\/p>\n
can be caused by a sharp double edged weapon. Going by the<\/p>\n
deposition of the doctor and the post-mortem certificate, it is<\/p>\n
established that the death of Prasanna was homicidal. PW2,<\/p>\n
who sustained injuries in the incident, has spoken to how it<\/p>\n
Crl.Appeal No.68\/2006\n<\/p>\n
                               – 6 –\n<\/p>\n
happened. He was sitting in the bed-room on the western side<\/p>\n
of the hall of his house. While so, Prasanna and PW3 rushed to<\/p>\n
the hall. She tried to close the door, but the appellant opened<\/p>\n
the door using force, entered the hall and stabbed Prasanna. He<\/p>\n
tried to intervene. He was also stabbed. On receiving the stab<\/p>\n
injuries, he fell down. The appellant repeatedly stabbed him<\/p>\n
and Prasanna. When PW4 came to the scene, he ran away.<\/p>\n
While he ran away, the dhoti worn by him fell down.            The<\/p>\n
version of PW3, the daughter of the appellant, who was also an<\/p>\n
eye-witness, substantially supports the version given by PW2.<\/p>\n
PW4, the mother of the deceased has spoken that she came to<\/p>\n
the hall on hearing the hue and cry and found Prasanna and<\/p>\n
PW2 lying in a pool of blood and the appellant rushing out of the<\/p>\n
room. The above versions of PWs.2, 3 and 4 establish beyond<\/p>\n
doubt that it was the appellant who inflicted the fatal injuries on<\/p>\n
Prasanna and caused grievous hurt to PW2.         Because of the<\/p>\n
timely medical attention, life of PW2 was saved. The injuries<\/p>\n
inflicted on him were sufficient, in the ordinary course, to cause<\/p>\n
death.        Therefore, the charge against the appellant under<\/p>\n
Crl.Appeal No.68\/2006\n<\/p>\n
                                – 7 –\n<\/p>\n
Section 307 of the I.P.C is also proved. Since the injuries were<\/p>\n
inflicted after entering the house of PW2 using force, the offence<\/p>\n
under Section 449 also stand established. The version given by<\/p>\n
the appellant is inherently improbable. We find no reason for<\/p>\n
PWs.2, 3 or 4 to falsely implicate the appellant and spare the<\/p>\n
real culprit. The case of the prosecution is further corroborated<\/p>\n
by the versions of other witnesses and materials on record. So,<\/p>\n
we are of the view that the trial court has rightly found the<\/p>\n
appellant guilty and sentenced him.      But, we think that the<\/p>\n
direction that       the substantive sentences imposed for the<\/p>\n
offences under Sections 449 and 307 will run consecutively is<\/p>\n
not justified.      We order that     those sentences shall run<\/p>\n
concurrently with life imprisonment.\n<\/p>\n
Crl.Appeal No.68\/2006\n<\/p>\n
                           – 8 –\n<\/p>\n
      Subject to the above direction, the Criminal Appeal is<\/p>\n
dismissed.\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
