JUDGMENT : 1. Delay condoned. 2. Leave granted. 3. Having regard to the nature of the order passed by the High Court in the appeal filed by the State against the order of acquittal passed by the Additional District and Sessions Judge, without adverting to the merits of the case with reference to the legal grounds urged in the appeal, we are of the view that the impugned judgment and order is cryptic and erroneous as the High Court has not even stated facts and nature of evidence so as to make out that the conclusion of the trial court was not perverse. However, without going into merits of the case, after carefully going through the correctness of the finding recorded in the judgment of the trial court on proper appreciation of evidence on record, we are satisfied that the view taken by the trial court is possible view. 4. In the normal course this Court ought to have set aside the judgment and order passed by the High Court and could have remanded the matter back to the High Court for fresh consideration on merits once it is found that the order passed by the High Court is erroneous. However, in the peculiar facts and circumstances of the case, we are inclined to make observation that the High Court, while examining the appeal filed against the finding of acquittal of the accused on the charge framed against him, is required to consider the case on merits and pass a reasoned order that is not done in this case. Thus we direct the Registry to send the copy of this order to bring it to the notice of the Allahabad High Court for taking appropriate steps. 5. For the reasons stated supra, the appeal is disposed of. Ordered accordingly.
