(A) Non examination of Gorkha Ram Bahadur is fatal to the prosecution in present case. 10. It is the case of the prosecution that incident took place in the presence of Gorkha Ram Bahadur but prosecution did not examine Gorkha Ram Bahadur in present case. It is held that non-examination of material eye witness Gorkha Ram Bahadur in present case is fatal to the prosecution case because as per testimony of injured prosecutrix witness Gorkha Ram Bahadur was the material eye witness of the incident. (B) Material improvements in the testimony of injured prosecutrix is fatal to the prosecution in present case. 11. It is held that non-examination of material eye witness Gorkha Ram Bahadur in present case is fatal to the prosecution case because as per testimony of injured prosecutrix witness Gorkha Ram Bahadur was the material eye witness of the incident. (B) Material improvements in the testimony of injured prosecutrix is fatal to the prosecution in present case. 11. It is proved on record that statement of injured prosecutrix was recorded under Section 154 Cr PC vide document Ext PA placed on record. Court has carefully perused the contents of document recorded under Section 154 Cr. PC. There is recital in statement recorded under Section 154 Cr PC that on dated 6.8.2006 when husband of injured prosecutrix did not come back from Punjab till 10 PM then prosecutrix along with Gorkha Ram Bahadur went out during night period to search the husband of injured prosecutrix. There is further recital in statement recorded under Section 154 Cr. PC that when injured prosecutrix along with Gorkha Ram Bahadur reached near Khushal Chand Hotel then co-accused Amar Nath son of Kishan Chand and another co-accused Tirath Ram son of Kishan Chand met injured prosecutrix and Gorkha Ram Bahadur and inquired about the presence of prosecutrix and Gorkha Ram Bahadur during the mid night upon the road nearby Khushal Chand Hotel. Injured prosecutrix has specifically stated in her statement recorded under Section 154 Code of Criminal Procedure that co-accused Amar Nath caught her and torn off her shirt and another co-accused Tirath Ram had inflicted injury upon the person of the prosecutrix with sharp edged weapon but when injured prosecutrix appeared in Court she has stated in positive manner that both accused persons have inflicted injuries upon the persons of prosecutrix. It is held that there is material improvement qua causing of injury upon injured prosecutrix. No reason has been assigned by injured prosecutrix as to why she did not state earlier this fact when her statement was recorded under Section 154 Code of Criminal Procedure that both accused persons have inflicted injuries upon her with sharp edged weapon. Hence it is held that in view of material improvements between the testimony of the prosecutrix recorded before the Court and between the statement of the prosecutrix recorded under Section 154 Code of Criminal Procedure it is not expedient in the ends of justice to convict the accused persons simply on the testimony of injured prosecutrix. Hence it is held that in view of material improvements between the testimony of the prosecutrix recorded before the Court and between the statement of the prosecutrix recorded under Section 154 Code of Criminal Procedure it is not expedient in the ends of justice to convict the accused persons simply on the testimony of injured prosecutrix. It is held that the testimony of injured prosecutrix did not inspire confidence of the Court in view of material improvements in present case. (C) Non-examination of mother-in-law of injured prosecutrix is fatal to the prosecution case. 12. Injured prosecutrix has specifically stated in her statement that her husband and her mother-in-law have rescued her from the clutches of the accused persons. Prosecution did not examine the mother-in-law of injured prosecutrix in order to prove that her mother-in-law had also rescued injured prosecutrix from the clutches of the accused persons and the same is fatal to the prosecution case. (D) Testimony of PW2 Chaman Lal husband of injured prosecutrix did not inspire confidence of the court. 13. It is proved on record that when statement of injured prosecutrix was recorded she has stated that injuries were caused to her by accused persons upon the road nearby the Hotel of Khushal Chand. Even as per site plan Ext PS placed on record the injury was caused to the injured prosecutrix upon the road but PW2 Chaman Lal husband of injured prosecutrix has specifically stated that prosecutrix and accused persons were found in the rivulet when he went in the rivulet to meet the call of nature. There is a material contradiction between the place of incident reported by the Investigating Officer and the place of incident mentioned by PW2 Chaman Lal. Hence it is held that it is not expedient in the ends of justice to convict the accused persons on the testimony of PW2 Chaman Lal. (E) FSL report Ext. PR not helpful to the prosecution. 14. As per FSL report Ext PR although blood was found upon darat but the same was not sufficient for examination. Hence it is held that even weapon of attack i.e. Darat is not connected with accused persons as per chemical analyst report. Public analyst did not mention in his report that blood of injured prosecutrix was found upon the weapon of attack i.e. Darat. Hence it is held that even weapon of attack i.e. Darat is not connected with accused persons as per chemical analyst report. Public analyst did not mention in his report that blood of injured prosecutrix was found upon the weapon of attack i.e. Darat. Hence it is held that weapon of attack is not connected with the injuries sustained by injured prosecutrix. (F) Disclosure statement of accused persons is not helpful to the prosecution. 15. It is held that disclosure statement of co-accused Tirath Ram is also not helpful to the prosecution because as per chemical analyst report the blood found upon weapon of attack i.e. Darat was not sufficient for chemical examination. It is well settled principle of law that vested right accrued in favour of the accused with the judgment of acquittal by learned trial Court. See (2013) 2 SCC 89 titled Mookkiah and another vs. State. See 2011 (11) SCC 666 titled State of Rajashthan vs. Talevar and another. See AIR 2012 SC (Supp) 78 titled Surendra vs. State of Rajasthan. See 2012 (1) SCC 602 titled State of Rajasthan vs. Shera Ram @ Vishnu Dutt. It is well settled principle of law (i) That appellate Court should not ordinarily set aside a judgment of acquittal in a case where two views are possible though the view of the appellate Court may be more probable. (ii) That while dealing with a judgment of acquittal the appellate Court must consider entire evidence on record so as to arrive at a finding as to whether views of learned trial Court are perverse or otherwise unsustainable (iii) That appellate Court is entitled to consider whether in arriving at a finding of fact, learned trial Court failed to take into consideration any admissible fact (iv) That learned trial court took into consideration evidence brought on record contrary to law. See AIR 1974 SC 2165 titled Balak Ram and another vs. State of U.P. See (2002) 3 SCC 57 titled Allarakha K. Mansuri vs. State of Gujarat, See (2003) 1 SCC 398 titled Raghunath vs. State of Haryana, See AIR 2007 SC 3075 State of U.P. vs. Ram Veer Singh and others, See AIR 2008 SC 2066 , (2008) 11 SCC 186 S.Rama Krishna vs. S. Rami Raddy (D) by his LRs. & others. & others.

See – (2010) 2 SCC 445 titled Ram Singh @ Chhaju vs. State of Himachal Pradesh. 16. It is well settled law that evidence of Medical Officer is not evidence of fact but is a evidence of opinion only. It is well settled law that conviction in criminal case is sustained on the proof of fact alleged by prosecution. (See AIR 1975 SC 1925 titled Kodali Puranchandra Rao and another vs. Public Prosecutor Andhra Pradesh. Also see (1991) 2 SCC 588 titled Daryao Singh vs. State of Madhya Pradesh.) It was held in case reported in AIR 1979 SC 1382 titled State (Delhi Administratrion) vs. Gulzarilal Tandon that moral conviction however strong cannot amount to legal conviction sustainable in law. (See AIR 1984 SC 1622 titled Sharad Birdhichand Sarda vs. State of Maharashtra. See AIR 1983 SC 906 titled Bhugdomal Gangaram and others etc vs. State of Gujarat. See AIR 1985 SC 1224 titled State of UP vs. Sukhbasi and others. See (2005) 9 SCC 765 titled Anjlus Dungdung vs State of Jharkhand). It was held in case reported in (2010) 11 SCC 423 titled Nanhar vs. State of Haryana that prosecution must stand or fall on its own leg and it cannot derive any strength from the weakness of defense. Also See (1984) 4 SCC 116 titled Sharad Birdhichand Sarda vs. State of Maharashtra. 17. Keeping in view of the ratio of law laid down by the Apex Court reported in (2010) 1 SCC 94 titled Mohammad Ankoos and others vs. Public Prosecutor High Court of Andhra Pradesh Hyderabad it is held that Court below has correctly appreciated the oral as well as documentary evidence placed on record. It is held that no ground for interference is called for in present case. Present appeal is dismissed and judgment of acquittal passed by learned trial court is affirmed and benefit of doubt is given to accused persons in present case. Appeal stands disposed of. All pending application(s) if any are also disposed of.
