( 1 ) IN this criminal revision the accused revisionist has challenged the impugned judgment and order dated 27-11-1984 passed by the learned Addl. Sessions judge, Ghaziabad. ( 2 ) THE background of the case is that the appellants were named in the F. I. R. lodged by the complainant-Dhanpal stating that while he was coming from the cattle market of Shahjahanpur to his village, he was having a sum of Rs. 1500/- with him, which he had taken for purchasing buffalo. As the buffalo of his choice was not available in the market, he was having the cash with him and he was accompanied by the accused appellant Jogendra who met him in the way. Later on when he left the bus and was coming to his village in the company of Jogendra, the other accused-appellant Devi Saran with another person met him near village Kuti. All were proceeding on foot and at about 8. 00 p. m. , Jogendra took out his revolver and fired in order to terrorize the complainant dhanpal. It was a place in the mid of a sugar cane field. Thereafter the appellant Devi saran and his companion started assaulting Dhanpal with knives and took out the aforesaid sum of Rs. 1500/ -. On alarm raised by the complainant, certain witnesses came flashing torches, at which the accused persons immediately ran away from the spot. The witnesses carried him to the house of Pradhan of Lodhipur. The complainant had to stay overnight at Pradhans place and in the morning Dhanpals brother-in-law- Latur was given information in village Pawti whereupon he arrived there. The complainants report dictated by him at Pradhans place was taken to the police station and he lodged the F. I. R. of the incident. The complainant was thereafter taken to the hospital where his injuries were examined and treated. ( 3 ) AFTER investigation, charge sheet was submitted by the police before the Trial Magistrate. The prosecution had examined as many as 11 witnesses and from the side of the defence, one witness was produced. The complainant was thereafter taken to the hospital where his injuries were examined and treated. ( 3 ) AFTER investigation, charge sheet was submitted by the police before the Trial Magistrate. The prosecution had examined as many as 11 witnesses and from the side of the defence, one witness was produced. The learned Magistrate, after having considered the material available on record, was of the view that though the witnesses P. W. 1 to P. W. 6 had not suported the prosecution version of the case but the reliance was placed upon the account of incident given by the complainant injured himself and believing his version, the Trial Magistrate recorded an order of conviction for the charges framed under Section 394, I. P. C. against the present two revisionist accused persons and sentenced them to undergo rigorous imprisonment for two years each and also to pay a fine of Rs. 1000/- each. ( 4 ) THE revisionists preferred an appeal against the judgment and order of the trial court and the learned Appellate Court, after considering the evidence led on behalf of the parties was of the view that even the solitary evidence of the witness can satisfy a Court for recording an order of conviction and pass sentence in a criminal case. The learned Addl. Sessions Judge, thus, dismissed the appeal. He however, modified the order of sentence and set aside the sentence ot payment of fine imposed by the trial Court. The sentence awarded for imprisonment was maintained. ( 5 ) AGGRIEVED with the aforesaid judgment and order of the Appellate Court, this revision has been preferred. ( 6 ) I have heard the learned counsel for the revisionist and the learned A. G. A. for the State-opposite party. ( 7 ) IT has been rightly observed by the learned lower Appellate Court that this case has been very poorly prosecuted in the trial court and certain materials, which were available and were striking also for the purpose of prosecution, have been left out. However, the evidence whatsoever made available by the prosecution has been found by both the courts below as quite genuine and believable for the purposes of recording conviction against the appellants for the offence of robbery. However, the evidence whatsoever made available by the prosecution has been found by both the courts below as quite genuine and believable for the purposes of recording conviction against the appellants for the offence of robbery. ( 8 ) IT is argued on behalf of the accused revisionists that since there is only one witness giving ocular account of incident of robbery and that too coming from injured complainants mouth, the Courts below were legally not justified to believe it as the same has not been got duly corroborated from the circumstances and also by the evidence which could have been made available on the record. Out of the two eye-witnesses besides the complainant, only one Raja Ram has been produced and he has been declared hostile. The other witness Rajpal has not been examined. Learned counsel has also submtted that the statement of complainant suffers from legal infirmity for the purposes to accept it as wholly reliable evidence. He himself admits that his statement was not taken by any Police Officer prior to the recording of evidence before the Court. The learned counsel has thus, emphasised that he is a witness not examined even under section 161, Cr. P. C. and that prejudices the accused if his statement is believed, treating it as wholly reliable evidence by the Court. ( 9 ) SO far as the question of solitary ocular account of incident given by the witness, whether acceptable or not, has been quite number of cases dealt with by the Honble apex Court, some of which also find elaborate reference in the judgment of the learned lower Appellate Court and I need not mention all of them here in this judgment. Suffice it to say that the Honble Court by different decisions given on this point has settled the matter by holding that a criminal court can accept even a solitary account of the incident given by the witness, if such witness on a close scrutiny is found by the court to be wholly reliable and his statement gets corroboration from the other circumstances. It is true that at one place in his statement record before the trial Court, the complainant Dhanpal (P. W. 10) has stated that no police personnel recorded his statement regarding the present incident or he had accompanied such police officer to the place of occurrence. It is true that at one place in his statement record before the trial Court, the complainant Dhanpal (P. W. 10) has stated that no police personnel recorded his statement regarding the present incident or he had accompanied such police officer to the place of occurrence. On basis of this statement given in the cross examination by the complainant, the learned counsel for the revisionists has laid much emphasis and stressed that if he is not a witness examined under Section 161 of Cr. P. C. , the Court cannot legally justify itself in finding one or the other corroboration of such evidence from any other material available on the record. ( 10 ) A perusal of the entire statement of p. W. 10 - the complainant shows that he has elaborated in material details the entire account of the prosecution case and has substantiated the whole story as depicted in the First Information Report. If at one place he has stated that he was not examined by any Police Officer before, it will not be of such adverse effect to justify rejection of his whole version of the case given and thus to disbelieve his evidence. At no place in the cross-examination a specific question has been put to this witness if he was examined by the Investigating Officer or not? it is also apparent that if he was not taken to the spot by the Investigating Officer it is because he was sent for medical examination and treatment and this fact has come in the evidence of the prosecution. The Investigating Officer in this case has been examined as P. W. 11 and he stated that he recorded the statement of the complainant and also went to the spot on the same date. This witness has not been cross-examined by the defence to any extent much less to ask him as to when and under what circumstances he had recorded the statement of the complainant-Dhanpal (P. W. 10) and to confront him with the statement of P. W. to, the complainant. If the defence was relying on this factor that the complainant was not examined by the Investigating Officer, it was under bounden duly to put questions to the Investigating Officer on (his point to which it has failed. If the defence was relying on this factor that the complainant was not examined by the Investigating Officer, it was under bounden duly to put questions to the Investigating Officer on (his point to which it has failed. Therefore, the argument as such will not be of any consequence for the purposes to find out one or the other illegality in believing the evidence of the complainant by the Courts below. ( 11 ) THE injury report of the complainant prepared at the hospital though, has been filed on record but it is not proved in the evidence. This was definitely an important piece of corroborative evidence for the purposes to establish the truthfulness of the prosecution version. The present case bens, not a case of simple Marpeet, the purpose for which such injury report is needed in evidence, is to corroborate the fact about presence of injuries on the person of the complainant. But there is other corroborative evidence, which could support the version of the complainant (P. W. 10) that he had received injuries on his body in the night of the incident. In the next morning, when the report was lodged at the police station by the injured complainant his injuries were noticed and noted there. At the time oi incident when knife injuries were inflicted upon his body there was blood fall on the ground and such blood stained earth from the spot was taken in possession by the Investigating Officer of which he prepared a memo (Ext. Ka. 1 ). He has also prepared the memo of taking in possession of the fired cartridge of 12 bore, the pellets and wads which were also recovered from the spot. Therefore, these are important corroborating evidence which lend support to the version given by the complainant before the trial Court and the Courts below are found to be fully justified in placing reliance upon such solitary evidence of the complainant while recording an order of conviction against the accused. The argument of the learned counsel for the accused that the solitary statement of the complainant is not safely reliable, is not acceptable. ( 12 ) THE accused persons, who were actually accompanying the victim complainant had been known from before and if they have committed such a robbery by making result upon him, the statement of such victim cannot be disbelieved. ( 12 ) THE accused persons, who were actually accompanying the victim complainant had been known from before and if they have committed such a robbery by making result upon him, the statement of such victim cannot be disbelieved. The defence has also not elicited anything in the cross-examination of prosecution witnesses as to reflect to some or the other enmity existing between the parties from before which might remotely justify to indict it to be a case of false implication on account of enmity. This appears to be a case where there is a hardly any scope for interference in the impugned judgment and order recorded by the learned lower Appellate Court which is not found suffering from any legal or procedural infirmity. ( 13 ) IN view of the aforesaid, the present revision having no force is hereby dismissed and the judgment and orders of the Courts below are affirmed. The conviction recorded and sentence imposed against the revisionists are maintained. ( 14 ) OFFICE is directed to immediately transmit the whole record of the lower Court including a certified copy of this judgment to the learned Sessions Judge, Ghaziabad who shall sign the conviction warrant and send the revisionist to prison to serve out the sentence awarded against them. The compliance report to this Court shall be submitted by the Court below within a period of 15 days from (he date of receipt of the record. Revision dismissed. .
