( 9 ) AFTER completing the Investigation P. W. 7 B. N. Chaturvedi, Investigating Officer, filed charge- sheet Ex. Ka. 12 against the appellant Vinod Kumar and co-accused Jai Prakash and Divendra Prakash. ( 10 ) THE appellant pleaded not guilty to the charge and stated that he was falsely implicated in the case due to enmity.

( 10 ) THE appellant pleaded not guilty to the charge and stated that he was falsely implicated in the case due to enmity. He further stated that he was arrested by the Sub-Inspector from his house and he was beaten and tortured by the Police at the Police Station. He also stated that he was also administered electric shock by the police at the Police Station. ( 11 ) WE have heard Sri P. C. Chaturvedi, the learned counsel for the appellants and the learned Government Advocate for the state and also the learned counsel for the complainant at great length and we feel that the appeal of the appellant must be allowed and the appellant must be acquitted. ( 12 ) THE prosecution examined eight witnesses in support of its case and out of them P. W. 1 Krishna Mohan and P. W. 2 Sushil Kumar are the witnesses of the occurrence. ( 13 ) P. W. 1 Krishna Mohan has stated that at the time of occurrence, he had gone to the shop of Shivji Panwala for eating betwels. According to him, the shop is situated at a distance of about ISO to 175 yards away from his house and while he was standing at the shop, he heard the screams of Arvind Kumar deceased ("bachao Bachao" ). On hearing the alarm, he rushed towards Tirahat and saw that the right hand of Arvind Kumar deceased had been caught hold by accused Divendra Prakash and his left hand was also caught hold by Jai Prakash accused and, then, the appellant Vinod Kumar after whipping out the knife from his Anti inflicted blow on the chest of deceased Arvind Kumar and as a result of the injury, the deceased Arvind Kumar fell down on the ground and all the three accused ran through the Halwai Wali Gali. He also stated that on haring the alarm of the deceased Arvind Kumar, Ajai Kumar, Devendra Kumar, Girish Kumar, and Jatan Prakash also arrived there and at the time of occurrence, Han Babu, Ajai Kumar and many other persons were present. He also stated that on haring the alarm of the deceased Arvind Kumar, Ajai Kumar, Devendra Kumar, Girish Kumar, and Jatan Prakash also arrived there and at the time of occurrence, Han Babu, Ajai Kumar and many other persons were present. He further stated that he alongwith others, gave a chase for a short distance when appellant Vinod Kumar got a thokar and he stumbled down on the ground and his knife also lost the grip of his hand and it fell down on the ground and, then, Jai Prakash accused who was running behind Vinod Kumar, appellant, picked up the said knife from the ground and made good his escape alongwith Divendra Prakash but Vinod Kumar appellant was apprehended on the spot and at the same time P. W. 2 Sushil Kumar, brother of Arvind deceased also arrived at the place of occurrence and then Sushil Kumar, Girish Kumar, Babu and Han Babu and others over, powered the appellant Vinod Kumar and took him near the place where Arvind Kumar was lying on the ground having wound oil his chest. The blood was also oozing out from the wound of Arvind Kumar and, then, Rajesh brother of Arvind Kumar deceased and others came, there and hired a Rickshaw and took Arvind Kumar to the Hospital. He, Sushil Kumar and others took the accused to Police Station and then he went to his house. ( 14 ) FROM the above statement of P. W. Krishna Mohan, it is absolutely clear that at the time of actual assault on the deceased Arvind Kumar, P. W. 2 Sushil Kumar was not present there as P. W. 1 Krishna Mohan has very clearly excluded the presence of Sushil Kumar at the time of occurrence when the deceased Arvind Kumar was assaulted. P. W. 1 Krishna Mohan had stated that Sushil Kumar reached the place of occurrence after Vinod Kumar appellant had fallen down on the ground as his foot had got struck against some object. Moreover, Krishna Mohan had also admitted in his evidence that he did not tell the Investigating Officer that Sushil Kumar P. W. 2 was present at the time of occurrence. It may further be noted that P. W. 1 Krishna Mohan had filed an affidavit dated 28. 12. 1976 in the Court of the Session Judge Bulandshah. The said affidavit is Ex. Kha. It may further be noted that P. W. 1 Krishna Mohan had filed an affidavit dated 28. 12. 1976 in the Court of the Session Judge Bulandshah. The said affidavit is Ex. Kha. 7 on the record and this document is also numbered as 11 Kha. on the record. In para 4 of this affidavit, it is mentioned that the deponent did not see the occurrence at all and it had also been said in the affidavit that he had been named as prosecution witness in the case because he was a friend of P. W. 2 Sushil Kumar. In the course of cross examination when this witness was confronted with this affidavit, the witness replied that he was forced to fill this affidavit by the appellant and his associates. D. W. 1 Nahar Singh, Advocate has been examined as a defence witness in this case and he was deposed that the witness Krishna. Mohan had sworn the affidavit on his own record. Nahar Singh D. W. 1 had also verified his signature on Ex. Kha. 7 and it has been marked as Ex. Kha. 3. He had also identified the signatures of Krishna Mohan who had signed before him on Ex. Kha. 7. In cross examination, the witness Krishna Mohan has also admitted that he had also filed an affidavit in the Allahabad High Court stating that he had filed the affidavit in the Court of Sessions Judge at Bulandshahar on 28. 12. 1976 under duress as the accused persons had, taken him to the Court under their custody on a false pretext and also under the threat of pistol with the result that the deponent was so much terror struck that he had no option left but to sign on the said affidavit. This affidavit was filed by Krishna Mohan in the High Court on 9. 2. 1977 opposing the Criminal Bail Application No. 734 of 1977 filed on behalf of the appellant in the High Court. A certified copy of the said affidavit of Krishna Mahan P. W. 1 is on the record as paper no. 77/8 Ka. It may be noted that the affidavit in the High Court apposing the bail application of the appellant was filed by P. W. 1 Krishna Mahan after a lapse of more than two months of the filing of the affidavit Ex. Kha. 7 before the Sessions Judge Bulandshahar. 77/8 Ka. It may be noted that the affidavit in the High Court apposing the bail application of the appellant was filed by P. W. 1 Krishna Mahan after a lapse of more than two months of the filing of the affidavit Ex. Kha. 7 before the Sessions Judge Bulandshahar. It may further be noted that after filing the First Affidavit on 28. 12. 1976 in the Court of Sessions Judge Bulandshahar stating that he did not witness the occurrence at all. P. W. 1 Krishna Kumar did not send any application to any authority complaining that he was farced by the accused to file the above affidavit in the Court of Bulandshahar. He also admitted in his evidence that after the filing of the aforesaid affidavit on 28- 12-1976 he did not disclose to any person far 3 or 4 days regarding filing of the aforesaid affidavit P. W. 1 Krishna Kumar in view of the aforesaid two contradictory affidavits, emerges to be a white- liar and we are fully satisfied that it will not at all be safe to place any reliance an the testimony of such a witness who take somersaults now and then. Moreover P. W. 1 Krishna Kumar was so much interested in getting the bail application of the appellant rejected by the High Court that he took the trouble of undertaking journey from Bulandshahar to. Allahabad far filing his affidavit apposing the bail application of the appellant in the High Court in view of his statement and his contradictory affidavits we are fully satisfied that P. W. 1 Krishna Mahan is a gat up witness and he has been nominated in the First Information Report as a witness at the instance of P. W. 2 Sushil Kumar with wham he was friendly as admitted by him in his affidavit dated 28. 12. 1976. Once, a prosecution witness goes back on his earlier statement by filing an affidavit and if there is no proper and plausible explanation on the record for filing subsequent affidavit the evidence of such a witness is not worthy of reliance and the Court should not hesitate in disbelieving the evidence of such a witness who takes somersault every now and then same times in favaur of the prosecution and sometimes in favaur of the defence. The evidence of such a witness is worthless, as such a witness is highly unreliable. The evidence of such a witness is worthless, as such a witness is highly unreliable. ( 15 ) THERE is another significant circumstance which also demolishes the presence of this witness at the time of occurrence. The, deceased according to the past mortem report sustained two anti- mortem injuries which are given below: - 1. Incised wound 7x 3x cavity deep extending from right nipple to the left upper abdomen rib cut lungs out. 2. Incised wound 1 x 1/2 x cavity deep loop of intestine out just above symphysis pubicus. ( 16 ) IT may be noted that P. W. 1 Krishna Mahan had only stated that he had seen the accused inflicting chest injury on the person of the deceased. Moreover, this witness has said that he had also seen the appellant taking out the knife from his anti and striking the knife blow an the chest of the deceased. Therefore, it is absolutely clear that according to his statement, he had seen the assault on the deceased tight from the initial stage P. W. 1 Krishna Mohan did not speak about the second injury as mentioned above. Therefore, his evidence does not explain the presence of second injury which was found just above the symphysis pubious of the deceased by the Doctor Om Prakash P. W. 6 arid, therefore, his evidence is not worthy of reliance an this ground as well as he had not explained the presence of second injury found an the person of the deceased. He speaks only about the single blow inflicted on the chest of deceased by the appellant. ( 17 ) P. W. 1 Krishna Mohan is also a chance witness. He also did not state before the Investigating Officer during Investigation that when he, had gone to the shop of Shivji Panwala he, then, had seen the occurrence. He had stated that he had gone to the Police Station alongwith Sushil Kumar P. W. 2 and others with the appellant but in the General Diary Ex. Ka. 3, his name does not find place that he had accompanied P. W. 3 Sushil Kumar when he came to the Police Station for lodging the First Information Report alongwith the appellant Vinod Kumar and instead the names of Girish Kumar, Ajay Kumar, Jatan Prakash and Dhirendra Prakash are mentioned in the G. D. entry Ka. Ka. 3, his name does not find place that he had accompanied P. W. 3 Sushil Kumar when he came to the Police Station for lodging the First Information Report alongwith the appellant Vinod Kumar and instead the names of Girish Kumar, Ajay Kumar, Jatan Prakash and Dhirendra Prakash are mentioned in the G. D. entry Ka. 3 as the companions of Sushil Kumar when he reached the Police Station alongwith the appellant Vinod Kumar for lodging the First Information Report. ( 18 ) MOREOVER, his part of the testimony to the effect that the co-accused Jai Prakash and Divendra Prakash had also participated in the occurrence, has not been relied upon by the trial Court. In view of the infirmity as shown above in the evidence of P. W. 1 Krishna Mohan no reliance can be placed on his testimony. We have already held that Krishna Mohan P. W. 1 is a got up witness for the purpose of this case. Now, we are left with the sole evidence of P. W. 2 Sushil Kumar who is the brother of the deceased and also the First Informant of this case. He has admitted in his evidence that at the time of occurrence, several civil and criminal cases were pending between the father of the appellant Vinod Kumar and his father and, therefore, the testimony of Sushi! Kumar has to be fully scrutinised for placing implicit reliance on his evidence. His part of the evidence regarding the participation of a co-accused Jai Prakash and Divendra Prakash has been rejected by the Trial Court and the trial Court has given cogent reasons for discarding the same. P. W. 2 Sushil Kumar like P. W. 1 Krishna Mohan did not explain the presence of second injury on the person of the deceased. He had also admitted that he had seen the appellant taking out knife from his Anti and giving blow on the chest of the deceased. Therefore, according to the testimony of P. W. 2 Sushil Kumar, he had witnessed the occurrence from its initial stage and his evidence which did not explain the second injury of the deceased is not worth reliance in view of the medical evidence in this case. Therefore, according to the testimony of P. W. 2 Sushil Kumar, he had witnessed the occurrence from its initial stage and his evidence which did not explain the second injury of the deceased is not worth reliance in view of the medical evidence in this case. There is, thus, conflict between the injuries actually received by the deceased and the eye-witness account given by the witnesses in this case as the evidence of both the witnesses as shown above did not explain the injury no. 2 of the deceased. He had also stated that at the time of the occurrence, he was taking betel from the shop of Kallu. His statement is not corroborated by any witness to the effect that he was present at the shop of Kallu at the time of assault on the deceased. Even P. W. 1 Krishna Mohan had excluded the presence of P. W. 2 Sushil Kumar at the time assault on the deceased. Moreover, in this case, it has come on the record that a number of independent persons were present on the scene of occurrence but out of those persons not a single person was examined to corroborate the statement of Sushil Kumar P. W. 12. Therefore, where at the place of occurrence, independent witnesses were available and if the prosecution failed to examined during trial anyone amongst those independent witnesses, a reasonable doubt is created regarding the genuineness of the prosecution case and, therefore, it will be highly unsafe to place any, reliance on the testimony of P. W. 2 Sushil Kumar and P. W. 1 Krishna Mohan for the conviction of the appellant in this case. ( 19 ) ANOTHER feature of the case which also requires consideration is that the two injuries of the deceased do not appear to have been caused by the same weapon. Injury no. 1 of the deceased Incised wound of 7 x 3 cavity deep cutting ribs of the deceased, appears to have been caused by Kulhari or some heavy cutting weapon and, therefore, it also shows that the occurrence was not witnessed either by P. W. 1 or P. W. 2. The learned Govt. Advocate vehemently argued that in this case, the First Information Report was very prompt but a close scrutiny of the chik Report Ex. Ka. The learned Govt. Advocate vehemently argued that in this case, the First Information Report was very prompt but a close scrutiny of the chik Report Ex. Ka. 2 clearly indicates that it was prepared subsequently after the death of the deceased Arvind Kumar. In column no. 3 of the Chik Report Ex. Ka. 2 on the first page, the penal section written with a pencil is 307/302 I. P. C. but in the body of the chik report, the allegations mentioned amount only to the offence under Section 307 I. P. C. This clearly shows that this Chik report Ex. Ka. 2 was prepared after the death of the deceased in the Hospital. It may further be noted that in the same column no. 3 of Chik report Ex. Ka. 2, where the Penal Section, is written with pencil was section 1307/3021 I. P. C. there is also a note written with ink that vide G. D. No. 34 dated 12. 9. 1976 Section 302 I. P. C. is added. This note written with ink clearly shows that the Chik report Ex. Ka. 2 was prepared after the registration of the case u/s 302 I. P. C. in the G. D. No. 34. Ex. Ka. 3. It may further be noted that G. D. entries at the Police Station regarding registration of cases are prepared subsequent to the preparation of the Chik Reports and are based on the contents mentioned in the body of the Chik Report. Therefore, the lodging of the First Information Report and the preparation of the Chik Report Ex. Ka. 2 at 8. 30 P. M. on 12. 9. 1976 in this case is highly suspicious and appears to be anti-timed. It is quite apparent that the preparation of the Chik report Ex. Ka. 2 was withheld by the. Investigating Agency and it was prepared subsequently after the preparation of the G. D. entry no. 34 Ex. Ka. 3 dated 12. 9. 1976 and, therefore, it is clearly established that the time given in the Chik report Ex. Ka. 2 is anti-timed and no reliance can be placed on the Police papers that the First Information Report in this case was really lodged at the Police Station at 8. 30 P. M. on 12. 9. 1976. It was also submitted by the learned Government Advocate that the medical examination of the appellant at 10. Ka. 2 is anti-timed and no reliance can be placed on the Police papers that the First Information Report in this case was really lodged at the Police Station at 8. 30 P. M. on 12. 9. 1976. It was also submitted by the learned Government Advocate that the medical examination of the appellant at 10. 15 P. M. on 12. 9. 1976 at the District Hospital Bulandshahr goes to show that the accused was really arrested on the spot at about 8 P. M. on 12. 9. 1976. It may be noted that though in the injury report Ex. Ka. 13, the time of examination of injuries of the appellant Vinod Kumar has been mentioned as 10. 15 P. M. but in the Bed Head Ticket of appellant Vinod Kumar as admitted by P. W. 8 Doctor H. U. K. Zuberi there are interpolations which may have been done by some nurse. In the Bed Head Ticket the time of admission is mentioned as 9. 10. 45. The Doctor stated that it appears that the nurse might have first written 9. 45 but when she had realised the actual time was 10. 45, then she had mentioned 10. 45. The Doctor also admitted that there is a not in between 9 and 10. He had also admitted that the time mentioned is not in his hand writing. Therefore, the examination of the appellant at 10. 15 P. M. on 12. 9. 1976 as stated by P. W. 8. Dr. H. U. K. Zuberi is also highly suspicious. Likewise, the time of examination of the appellant at 10. 15 P. M. as given in the injury report Ex. Ka. 13 by Dr. Zuberi is highly doubtful and not worth of belief. ( 20 ) IT may further be noted that the appellant had received only two minor injuries in his person which is also not probable if really he was arrested on the spot. In such a situation when an accused person is arrested on the spot after causing injuries to the victim then a good beating to the accused is generally noted out by the complainants party. Therefore, it is not probable and believable that the appellant was arrested on the spot as alleged by the prosecution. In such a situation when an accused person is arrested on the spot after causing injuries to the victim then a good beating to the accused is generally noted out by the complainants party. Therefore, it is not probable and believable that the appellant was arrested on the spot as alleged by the prosecution. The assertion of the appellant that he was arrested by the Police from his house and was given beating at the Police Station, appears to be probable. Moreover, the dramatic disappearance of the alleged knife from the place of occurrence also makes the prosecution case highly doubtful. ( 21 ) HAVING considered all the facts and circumstances of the case as stated above, we come to the irresistible conclusion that the story of the arrest of the appellant on the spot set up by the prosecution is absolutely false. Moreover, of the injuries of the deceased remained unexplained by the two eye-witnesses examined in this case. We further hold that the two witnesses examined in this case are not only chance witnesses but also they are got up witnesses as from their evidence it is absolutely clear that they did not witness the occurrence at all. Their oral testimony is also be lied by the medical evidence in this case. The infirmity in their evidence, as stated above, bas also rendered their evidence unreliable and not worthy of any credence. We further hold that the First Information Report in this case has been anti-timed by the Police and therefore, is highly doubtful if the First Information Report of this case was really lodged at 8. 30 P. M. on 12. 9. 76 at the Police Station. We further hold that the time of the examination of the injuries of the appellant as mentioned in the injury report Ex. Ka. 13 has also been shown incorrectly by P. W. 8 Dr. Zuberi in league with the police to give strength to the alleged story of the arrest of the appellant by the witnesses on the spot. ( 22 ) IN the result, the appeal is allowed. The conviction and sentences as recorded by the trial court are set aside. The appellant is on bail. He need not surrender. His bail bonds are cancelled. Appellants acquitted .
