JUDGMENT : Gopal Krishan Vyas, J. 1. The present criminal appeals are filed by the appellants, Jitender Singh, Prahlad Ram and Surendra Singh, under Section 374 Cr.P.C., 1973 assailing the impugned judgment dated 19th of July, 2012 passed by learned Additional Sessions Judge, Deedwana, District Nagaur, in Session Case No.5/2010 arising out of F.I.R. No.170/2009 of Police Station Deedwana, District Nagaur, whereby all the three accused appellants were convicted for offence under Section 302/34 of IPC and sentence of life imprisonment along with fine of Rs. 5000/- was passed, with default stipulation to further undergo six months? simple imprisonment. 2. Succinctly stated, the facts of the case are that on 13.11.2009, PW.-2 complainant Smt. Sajjan Devi W/o Sh. Mukund Raj Jain, lodged a complaint at Police Station-Deedwana at 12.30 AM, inter-alia, alleging therein that in the intervening night of 12/13.11.2009 at about 12.30 in the night, her husband Mukund Raj Jain (deceased) received a phone call on his mobile and after attending the phone call, her husband left the house while saying that he will come back within ten minutes. According to complainant, her husband was contesting the election of Municipal Council, Deedwana from Ward No.20, and he usually came late in the night, therefore, she went to sleep. In the morning, when she saw her husband did not come back in the night, she informed Mahendra S/o Sitaram Upadhayay (neighbour) to search him. Upon search in the Congress Party office, the dead body of Mukund Raj Jain was found lying inside the room, his legs were tied up by rope and a pillow was put upon the body. 3. In pursuance of the aforesaid written complaint, formal F.I.R. No.170/2009 was registered at Police Station Deedwana against unknown person and investigation was commenced. 4. The S.H.O., Police Station-Deedwana went on the spot where dead body was lying and prepared site plan and recorded the details of place of occurrence vide Ex.P/14 in the presence of two witnesses, namely, Rajesh and Ramkishore. The investigating officer prepared 'Panchnama' of the dead body vide Ex.P/11 in the presence of five persons, namely, Lalit Jaju, Shailendra, Dinesh, Sanjeev Parakh and Ajay Jain at 04.45 PM on 13.11.2009. A blood stained cotton inner of deceased, Mukund Raj Jain, which he was wearing at the time of incident was taken in possession vide Ex.P/2. The investigating officer prepared 'Panchnama' of the dead body vide Ex.P/11 in the presence of five persons, namely, Lalit Jaju, Shailendra, Dinesh, Sanjeev Parakh and Ajay Jain at 04.45 PM on 13.11.2009. A blood stained cotton inner of deceased, Mukund Raj Jain, which he was wearing at the time of incident was taken in possession vide Ex.P/2. One blood stained handkerchief of white colour lying near the dead body was taken in possession vide Ex.P/3. The pieces of newspaper as well as blood stained rexine carpet and, so also, some currency notes were taken in possession vide Ex.P/4, Ex.P/5 and Ex.P/6. The pieces of cigarette were also taken in possession vide Ex.P/7. The other articles lying on the spot viz. pillow, blood stained vest of the deceased were taken in possession. All the recovered articles were sent for chemical examination to the FSL, and in turn FSL report (Ex.P/64) was received on 08.12.2009. One report with respect of pieces of cigarette was also received vide Ex.P/63 dated 16.08.2010. 5. The dead body of deceased, Mukund Raj Jain was taken to the Govt. Hospital, Deedwana for postmortem, where postmortem of the dead body was conducted on 05.30 PM on 13.11.2009 by the Medical Board and postmortem report (Ex.P/50) was prepared in which Medical Board opined that the cause of death was shock due to hemorrhage as a result of injury No.3 and the injury were found to be anti mortem in nature. 6. On the basis of call details of deceased Mukund Raj Jain, all the three accused appellants Surendra Singh, Prahlad Ram and Jitender Singh were arrested vide Ex.P/18, Ex.P/19 and Ex.P/20 on 16.11.2009. After arrest, one mobile, shirt, some papers, and knife were recovered from accused appellant Jitender Singh Manda, so also, information was given by him that one handkerchief was left at the place of occurrence. The said handkerchief was already taken in possession from the place of occurrence vide Ex.P/3 at the time of inspection of the site. One mobile (Nokia-5130) shirt and pant were recovered upon the information of accused appellant, Surendra Singh. 7. During investigation, statements of the witnesses were recorded under Section 161 Cr.P.C., 1973 and on completion of investigation, charge sheet was filed against accused appellants on the basis of circumstantial evidence of call details, blood stained, clothes and knife, in the court of Addl. 7. During investigation, statements of the witnesses were recorded under Section 161 Cr.P.C., 1973 and on completion of investigation, charge sheet was filed against accused appellants on the basis of circumstantial evidence of call details, blood stained, clothes and knife, in the court of Addl. Chief Judicial Magistrate, Deedwana, under Section 302 and 201/34 of IPC, the learned Magistrate committed the case for trial to the court of Addl. Sessions Judge, Deedwana, where trial was commenced against all the accused appellants. 8. The learned trial court provided an opportunity of hearing to the accused appellants and after hearing arguments, framed charge against them for offence under Sections 302/34 IPC on the basis of circumstantial evidence available on record, but the appellants denied the charge and prayed for trial. In the trial, statements of 28 prosecution witnesses were recorded on oath in support of prosecution case, and thereafter statements of accused appellants were recorded under Section 313 Cr.P.C., 1973 in which they denied the allegations levelled by the prosecution witnesses and said that they are innocent. The learned trial court though granted an opportunity to lead evidence in defence to the accused appellant, but no defence witness was produced by them. Thereafter final arguments were heard and after considering the arguments and entire evidence on record, all the accused appellants were convicted by the trial court for offence under Section 302/34 of IPC vide judgment dated 19.07.2012 and sentence of life imprisonment along with fine of Rs. 5000/- was passed against all the accused appellants. The said judgment is under challenge in these appeals. 9. Learned counsel appearing on behalf of appellants vehemently argued that there is no direct evidence in this case because dead body of deceased Mukund Raj Jain was found in Congress office Deedwana but on the basis of call details, the accused appellants were arrested but said evidence of call details cannot be treated as an evidence so as to connect the accused appellants with the crime because call details have not been proved in accordance with Section 65B of the Evidence Act. Therefore, the finding of guilt recorded by the learned trial court for conviction on the basis of circumstantial evidence of call details of mobiles recovered from the appellants, does not inspire any confidence. 10. Therefore, the finding of guilt recorded by the learned trial court for conviction on the basis of circumstantial evidence of call details of mobiles recovered from the appellants, does not inspire any confidence. 10. Learned counsel for the appellants vehemently argued that it is a case in which recovery of knife was made at the instance of accused appellant, Jitender Singh Manda vide Ex.P/51, but said recovery has not been proved by the prosecution beyond reasonable doubt because both the witnesses of all the recovery of articles, namely, Suresh Kumar and Man Singh are police official as and recovery was made from open place vide Ex.P/51, therefore, when the recovery of knife and other articles not proved by the independent witness, then obviously the trial court has committed a grave error to convict the accused appellants for the alleged crime of murder. 11. Learned counsel for the appellants further argued that motive is main ingredient for commission of offence under Section 302 IPC, but here in this case, there is no evidence on record to prove any motive of the appellants to cause death of deceased. None of the prosecution witnesses made allegations with regard to any previous enmity or intention of the accused appellants to commit murder, therefore, in absence of any motive, it can be said that the learned trial court has failed to appreciate the evidence and convicted the accused appellants for the alleged crime of murder of Mukund Raj Jain without any reliable evidence. It is further submitted that some currency notes were recovered from the place of occurrence i.e. from the Congress office of Deedwana and there is finding of the learned trial court that probably for money, the offence was committed by the appellants, but there is no such evidence on record to prove the motive so as to hold accused appellant guilty. 12. Learned counsel for the appellants argued that evidence of call details is also hit by Section 65B of the Evidence Act because there is no evidence of verification of call details, which is mandatory so as to held the accused appellants guilty for the allege crime. 12. Learned counsel for the appellants argued that evidence of call details is also hit by Section 65B of the Evidence Act because there is no evidence of verification of call details, which is mandatory so as to held the accused appellants guilty for the allege crime. The prosecution has failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt because complete chain of circumstances is missing so as to connect the accused appellants with the crime as held by the Hon'ble Apex Court in the case of Sharad Birdhichand v. Sarda, reported in AIR 1984 SC 1622 and subsequent judgments. In the said case, the Hon'ble Apex Court held that conviction can be based upon circumstantial evidence of recovery of weapon and other articles but it is duty of prosecution to prove each and every fact beyond reasonable doubt, but here in this case, the prosecution has completely failed to produce any reliable and trustworthy evidence in support of its case, therefore, accused appellants are entitled for benefit of doubt. 13. Learned counsel for the appellants further submitted that deceased Mukund Raj Jain was one of the candidate for contesting the election of Municipal Council, Deedwana, from Ward No.20, and as per prosecution evidence none of the appellants were involved in politics nor there is any evidence to prove the fact that they were connected with any political party. The mobile phones and other articles were not recovered in presence of independent witness, therefore, finding of guilty recorded by the learned trial court so as to convict the accused appellants for the offence of murder, is not sustainable in the eye of law. He, thus prayed that the present appeals may kindly be allowed and the judgment impugned may kindly be set aside. 14. Per contra, learned Public Prosecutor vehemently opposed above submissions and argued that there is no strength in the arguments of the learned counsel for the appellants that prosecution has failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt, although the prosecution case is based upon circumstantial evidence of recovery of mobile phones, blood stained clothes and knife recovered as per information given by accused appellants but all the recoveries are proved by the prosecution beyond reasonable doubt to connect the accused appellant with the crime to cause death of Mukund Raj Jain (deceased). 15. 15. It is further argued that there is ample reliable evidence on record to prove the fact that in the intervening night of 12/13.11.2009, there was conversation in between the deceased and the accused persons, which is proved by the prosecution because one mobile phone was recovered vide Ex.P/21 from accused appellant Jitender Singh, another mobile phone (Nokia- 5130) was recovered vide Ex.P/25 belonging to Prahlad Ram and one mobile phone (Nokia-7210) was recovered as per information of accused appellant Surendra Singh vide Ex.P/16, and recovery of mobile phone is duly proved beyond reasonable doubt. There is other evidence of blood stained clothes viz. shirt of accused appellant-Jitender Singh, blood stained pant and shirt of Prahlad Ram and Surendra Singh recovered during investigation and all thee recoveries establish the fact that accused appellants committed murder of Mukund Raj Jain in the Congress office Deedwana. 16. It is pointed out that as per call details, it is completely established that some conversation took place in between the accused appellants with the deceased, Mukund Raj Jain, in the intervening night of 12/13.11.2009, therefore, the learned trial court recorded finding that prosecution has proved its case beyond reasonable doubt against the accused appellants and no error has been committed by the trial court to convict the accused appellants for offence under Sections 302/34 of IPC because all the circumstances are in existence to connect the accused appellants with the crime. There is no question to interfere with the finding of learned trial court whereby the accused appellants are convicted for the offence of murder. 17. After hearing the learned counsel for the parties, we have perused the entire evidence and considered the statements of all the prosecution witnesses. Admittedly, there is no eyewitness of the incident, nor there is any evidence of last seen of the accused appellants together with the deceased, Mukund Raj Jain. It is also apparent from the evidence that there is no direct evidence of motive on record but in paragraph 32 of the judgment learned trial court observed that as per site plan of the place of occurrence (Ex.P/1), the almirah/s lying in the Congress office were found to be opened and some currency note were found, therefore, a presumption is drawn that probably some party fund was lying in the almirah, therefore, for said amount of money, the incident took place. As per facts disclosed by the complainant in the FIR, in the intervening night of 12/13.11.2009 at 12.30, her husband Mukund Raj Jain (deceased) received a phone call on his mobile and thereafter left the house while saying his wife that he will come back within ten minutes, but did not come back. 18. According to prosecution story, the appellants made phone call and upon asking deceased went to the Congress office where occurrence took place. If such finding of learned trial court is accepted that motive of the incident was to take money lying in the Congress office, then, obviously there was no reason to make phone call to the deceased and come in the Congress office, where money which is presumed to be lying in the almirah. The finding of motive is based upon presumption without any basis, therefore, we are of the firm opinion that such finding of motive based on presumption cannot be treated to be an evidence to prove the motive, therefore, we are not inclined to accept the finding of motive arrived at by the learned trial court in paragraph 32 of the judgment. There is no other evidence on record to prove any motive or intention of the accused appellants, but conviction of the accused appellants is based upon recovery of mobile phones as well as blood stained clothes from all the accused appellants and in addition to mobile and clothes, a knife from the accused appellant-Jitender Singh, therefore, we deem it appropriate to consider and assess the evidence of prosecution against each of the appellants so as to arrive at the conclusion for the involvement of each appellants. Prahlad Ram: 19. The accused appellant-Prhalad Ram has been convicted on the basis of recovery one mobile (Nokia-5130) was recovered vide Ex.P/25 from one Jagat Singh (PW.22) with whom the said mobile phone was mortgaged by accused-Prahlad Ram. The said recovery of mobile phone was effected in the presence of two witnesses, namely, Man Singh, Head Constable No.198 of Police Station-Deedwana, and Suresh Kumar, FC of Police Station-Deedwana. The said recovery of mobile phone was effected in the presence of two witnesses, namely, Man Singh, Head Constable No.198 of Police Station-Deedwana, and Suresh Kumar, FC of Police Station-Deedwana. Firstly, we have perused the statement of PW.22-Jagat Singh, from whom mobile (Nokia-5130) was recovered, the said witness turned hostile and did not support the recovery of mobile from him, whereas PW.16 Man Singh, Head Constable in whose presence the said mobile was produced during investigation by Jagat Singh, stated in the cross-examination that:- ^^tks eksckbZy uksfd;k uaEcj 1600 o uksfd;k uaEcj 5130 eSaus cjken djuk crk;k gS nksuksa eksckbZy Lohp vkWQ FksA esjs lkeus mDr nksuksa eksckbZy dks vkWu ugha fd;k x;kA esjs lkeus nksuksa eksckbZy dks FkSys esa Mkydj fly piM+h dj nh FkhA eksckbZy ftl cUn fLFkfr esa Fks mlh fLFkfr esa fly fpV dj fn;k x;sA nksuksa eksckbZy lsV ij fdlh Hkh eqyfte dk uke ;k igpku fpUg ugha fy[kk gSA eq>s /;ku ugha gS fd eksckbZy uksfd;k 5130 esa dksbZ eSeksjh dkMZ Fkk ;k ughaA** 20. The other witness PW.25 Suresh Kumar, FC of Police Station-Deedwana though deposed in his statements that one mobile was produced by Jagat Singh at police station and it was taken in possession vide Ex.P/25 but we cannot loose sight of the fact that both the witnesses police officials and Jagat Singh from whom mobile was recovered, turned hostile and did not support the prosecutor story. Therefore, the recovery of mobile which is alleged to be mortgaged by accused appellant Prahlad Ram at Delhi with Jagat Singh, has not been proved beyond doubt and we are of the opinion that recovery of mobile (Nokia-5130) cannot be treated to be proved so as to connect the accused appellant-Prahlad Ram with the crime. 21. The another evidence is recovery of shirt and pant of the accused appellant Prahlad. According to prosecution case, the accused appellant-Prahlad Ram was arrested on 16.11.2009 vide Ex.P/20 and after five days on 21.11.2009, an information was given by him under Section 27 of the Evidence Act for recovery of shirt and pant which were wore by him on the date of occurrence. In pursuance of said information shirt and pant were recovered on 24.11.2009 vide Ex.P/26. We have perused the recovery memo (Ex.P/26). The clothes were recovered near railway line in between village Sanward and Deedwana lying in a black colour plastic bag. In pursuance of said information shirt and pant were recovered on 24.11.2009 vide Ex.P/26. We have perused the recovery memo (Ex.P/26). The clothes were recovered near railway line in between village Sanward and Deedwana lying in a black colour plastic bag. The question arises when information was given on 21.11.2009 then why recovery was made on 24.11.2009 at 10.00 AM after three days. 22. The witness PW.16- Man Singh stated in his examination-in-chief that:- ^^fnukad 24-11-2010 dks eqyŒ izgykn ls ,d deht o ,d thal dh is.V eqŒ izgykn dh bfRryk ij jsyos iVjh QkVd ds ckgj tkdj cjken djk;k ftldh QnZ izn'kZ ihŒ 26 gS ftl ij ,s ls ch esjs gLrk{kj gSA** But it is nowhere disclosed by him that clothes were recovered in black co lour plastic bag near the railway line. In the cross-examination, the said witness stated that: ^^;g lgh gS fd izn'kZ ihŒ 18 ls izn'kZ ihŒ 16 rd esa tCr diM+ks ij ls o mudh tscksa esa ls ,slk dksbZ izek.k ugha feyk] ftlls irk yxrk gks fd ;s diM+s fdl eqyfte ds gSA ;g lgh gS fd izn'kZ ihŒ 18 ls izn'kZ ihŒ 27 rd eqfrZc djus le; rhuksa eqyŒ iqfyl dLVM+h esa FksA esjs tkudkjh esa gS fd lacaf/kr QnksZ ij gLrk{kj djkus ls igys tkap vf/kdkjh us dsl Mk;jh esa ;g uksV Mkyk Fkk fd Lora= ekSrchj miyC/k ugha gSA** 23. It is worthwhile to mention here that both these witnesses viz. Man Singh (PW.16) and Suresh Kumar (PW.25) are police officials and no independent witness proved the so-called recovery of clothes. In view of above evidence, it is admitted fact of the prosecution case that no independent witness was present at the time of recovery of clothes and Nokia phone. Therefore, the entire prosecution case is seriously doubtful. It is also relevant to mention here that information was recorded on 21.11.2009 and the recovery was made after three days. This fact itself loudly speaks that recovery of clothes is seriously doubtful. 24. We have also perused the FSL report (Ex.P/64) no blood group was found upon the clothes lying in packet "P", which is said to be recovered. It is also relevant to mention here that information was recorded on 21.11.2009 and the recovery was made after three days. This fact itself loudly speaks that recovery of clothes is seriously doubtful. 24. We have also perused the FSL report (Ex.P/64) no blood group was found upon the clothes lying in packet "P", which is said to be recovered. In view of above discussion, the recovery of clothes and mobile (Nokia-5130) has not been proved beyond reasonable doubt which is said to be revered in the presence of police officials and no independent witness appear before the court to prove the fact of recovery of clothes, and Nokia mobile. The finding of guilt recorded by the trial court is not in consonance with criminal jurisprudence. Surendra Singh: 25. We have considered the arguments advanced by learned counsel for the appellants with respect to recovery of pant, shirt and mobile (Nokia-7210) which are said to be recovered as per information given by accused appellant-Surendra Singh to connect him with the alleged crime of murder. Admittedly, accused appellant Surendra Singh was arrested vide Ex.P/18 on 16.11.2009 and at the time of arrest he was having a bag with him and from the said bag, one shirt of green colour and one jeans pant of blue colour were recovered and taken in possession at the time of arrest on 16.11.2009 that too again in the presence of witnesses, Man Singh and Suresh Kumar at Police Station. In our opinion, the said recovery cannot be treated to be a recovery because it is beyond imagination that an accused will keep those blood stained shirt and pant with him after the incident in a bag, recovered at the time of arrest, that too in the presence of two police officials, viz. Head Constable Man Singh (PW.16) and FC Sukesh Kumar (PW.25). The recovery of clothes from the possession of accused appellant Surendra Singh is seriously doubtful because neither the said recovery was made in the presence of independent witness nor it has been recovered upon information given by the accused appellant Surendra Singh. It is very important to observe that recovered clothes vide Ex.P/24 were in the packet 'J' and as per FSL report Ex.P/63, no blood group was found whereas blood of deceased, Mukund Raj Jain, was of 'B' group. It is very important to observe that recovered clothes vide Ex.P/24 were in the packet 'J' and as per FSL report Ex.P/63, no blood group was found whereas blood of deceased, Mukund Raj Jain, was of 'B' group. Therefore, there is no question to accept the said evidence so as to prove the recovery of clothes from accused appellant, Surendra Singh. 26. One mobile (Nokia) was said to be recovered upon information given by accused appellant-Surendra Singh vide Ex.P/16 from one Shrawan Kumar from his house. The said recovery of mobile was made in the presence of Nemichand and Suresh Kumar. Shrawan Kumar, from whom the mobile (Nokia-7210) was recovered as per information given by accused Surendra Singh vide Ex.P/55, appeared before the court as PW.14, but turned hostile and did not support the recovery of mobile phone from him. Therefore, when Shrawan Kumar (PW.14) from whom mobile was recovered, turned hostile, then how it can be presumed that mobile (Nokia-7210) was recovered at the instance of accused appellant Surendra Singh. The witness PW.-13 Nemichand, turned hostile and did not support the recovery of mobile from Shrawan Kumar at the instance of accused appellant, Surendra Singh. Though witness PW.25 Suresh Kumar, Foot Constable stated in his statement that recovery of mobile was made from Shrawan Kumar but admittedly he is police personnel, not independent witness, therefore, we are unable to accept his testimony so as to treat the recovery of mobile (Nokia-7210) proved at the instance of accused appellant, Surendra Singh. 27. In view of above, we are of the opinion that finding of trial court to convict the accused appellant, Surendra Singh, deserves to be quashed because prosecution has failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt on the basis of recovery of clothes, and mobile phone at the instance of accused appellant Surendra Singh. Jitender Singh: 28. As per evidence on record, the appellant-Jitender Singh has been held guilty for offence under Section 302/34 IPC on the basis of recovery of three articles viz. recovery of mobile vide Ex.P/21, recovery of shirt vide (Ex.P/22), and recovery of papers vide (Ex.P/23). All these articles were recovered on 16.11.2009 in the presence of two police officials viz. PW.16 Man Singh, H.C. and PW.25-Suresh Kumar, F.C. of Police Station Deedwana. We have perused the document (Ex.P/21), whereby one mobile (Nokia-1600) was recovered at the time of arrest. recovery of mobile vide Ex.P/21, recovery of shirt vide (Ex.P/22), and recovery of papers vide (Ex.P/23). All these articles were recovered on 16.11.2009 in the presence of two police officials viz. PW.16 Man Singh, H.C. and PW.25-Suresh Kumar, F.C. of Police Station Deedwana. We have perused the document (Ex.P/21), whereby one mobile (Nokia-1600) was recovered at the time of arrest. It is established by the prosecution evidence that Mobile (Nokia-1600) was in possession of the accused appellant Jitender Singh at the time of arrest of accused appellant-Jitender Singh, therefore, recovery can be treated to be proved because at the time of arrest, accused appellant-Jitender Singh was having said mobile in his possession. The arrest of accused appellant Jitender Singh vide Ex.P/20 is not in dispute, therefore, it cannot be presumed that mobile was not recovered at the time of arrest. Similarly the shirt and paper which he was possessing at the time of arrest were also taken in possession at the time of arrest, therefore, there is no question to discuss that these recoveries were made upon information under Section 27 of the Evidence Act. As per evidence on record, one handkerchief was taken in possession vide Ex.P/3 from the place of occurrence on the date of incident i.e. on 13.11.2009 lying near the dead body of deceased at Congress office. According to prosecution, an information was given by the accused appellant Jitender Singh Manda vide Ex.P/53 that his white colour handkerchief was left at the place of occurrence, therefore, the said recovery has significance to connect the accused appellant with the crime. The knife which is said to be used by the accused appellant, Jitender Singh for inflicting injuries, was recovered vide Ex.P/51 on 20.11.2009 at 12.30 PM upon information given by accused appellant Jitender Singh vide Ex.P/54 on 17.11.209. We have perused the recovery memo (Ex.P/51), which is said to be recovered in the presence of two witnesses, viz. Suresh Kumar and Prabhu Ram. 29. We cannot loose sight of the fact that the blood stained knife was recovered on the basis of information given by accused appellant under section 27 of the Evidence Act vide Ex.P/51. We have perused the recovery memo (Ex.P/51), which is said to be recovered in the presence of two witnesses, viz. Suresh Kumar and Prabhu Ram. 29. We cannot loose sight of the fact that the blood stained knife was recovered on the basis of information given by accused appellant under section 27 of the Evidence Act vide Ex.P/51. In the recovery memo (Ex.P/51) of the knife, following facts were recorded by the Investigating Officer, which reads under:- ^^mijksDr ekSrfcjku ds le{k eqdnek gktk esa tSj fgjklr iqfyl eqyfte ftrsUnz e.Mk iq= Jh xksiky jke tkfr tkV mez 22 lky fuoklh lkjM+ ihŒ,lŒ tloUrx<+ ftyk ukxkSj esa eqrkfcd bfRryk 27 lk{; vf/kfu;e Jh xksiky xkS'kkyk MhMokuk ls iSny&iSny vkxs&vkxs pydj xksiky xkS'kkyk ds nf{k.k iwoZ dksu ij [kkyh tehu egs'ojh lekt MhMokuk esa j[kh lq[kh dkaVsnkj >kfM+;ksa ds uhps ls ,d pkdw yksgk ydM+h dk gRFkk dks fudky dj is'k fd;k ftlds Qy ij [kwu yxk gqvk gSA ftls crkSj otg lcwr tCr dj dCtk iqfyl esa fy;k x;kA pkdw dh gRFks lfgr yEckbZ ukS bUp gSA Qy dh yEckbZ 4@2 bap e/; esa pkSM+kbZ 2 lsehŒ iSuk Qy /kkjnkj ftlds ydM+h dk gRFkk yxk gqvk gS ftldh yEckbZ 11 lsehŒ pkSMkbZ 1@2 lsehŒ eksVkbZ djhc 1 lsehŒ gSA gRFks ij nks fjiV yksgs dh yxkbZ gqbZ gSA gR;k Qy dh rjQ ls e/; ls djhc 5 lsehŒ rd ijk gqvk gS dks dkxt ds VqdM+s esa yisV dj diM+s dh lQsn FkSyh es j[kdj FkSyh dk eqg can dj lhy fpV cUn fd;k x;k ekdZ ^^vks** vafdr fd;k x;kA QnZ ij uewuk 'ky vafdr dh xbZA QnZ cjkenxh vkyk,a dRy pkdw yksgk gLc dk;nk eqfrZc dj eqrkydhu dks i<+ dj lqukbZ lqu le> lgh eku vius&vius gLrk{kj fd;sA** 30. The recovered knife, shirt and handkerchief were sent for chemical examination to the FSL along with other articles and as per FSL report (Ex.P/64) blood of 'B' group was found upon the said knife and shirt of accused appellant Jitender Singh. In view of above evidence, it is established that blood group of 'B' was found upon the knife and shift of the accused appellant, Jitender Singh, therefore, in our opinion involvement of accused appellant, Jitender Singh for commission of offence, is proved by the prosecution beyond reasonable doubt. 31. In view of above evidence, it is established that blood group of 'B' was found upon the knife and shift of the accused appellant, Jitender Singh, therefore, in our opinion involvement of accused appellant, Jitender Singh for commission of offence, is proved by the prosecution beyond reasonable doubt. 31. We have considered the argument of learned counsel for the accused appellant that as per Section 65-B of the Evidence Act it was necessary for the prosecution to lead evidence of verification of call details, to prove the call details. The above ground has been considered in the recent judgment of Hon'ble Supreme Court in the case of Sonu @ Amar v. State of Haryana reported in AIR 2017 SC 3441 , and following adjudication is made in para 27, which reads as under:- "It is nobody 's case that CDRs which are a form off electronic record are not inherently admissible in evidence. The objection is that they were marked before the Trial Court without a certificate as required by Section 65B (4). It is clear from the judgments referred to supra that an objection relating to the mode or method off proof has to be raised at the time off marking off the document as an exhibit and not later. The crucial test, as affirmed by this Court, is whether the defect could have been cured at the stage off marking the document. Applying this test to the present case, if an objection was taken to the CDRs being marked without a certificate, the Court could have given the prosecution an opportunity to rectify the deficiency. It is also clear from the above judgments that objections regarding admissibility off documents which are per se inadmissible can be taken even at the appellate stage. Admissibility off a document which is inherently inadmissible is an issue which can be taken up at the appellate stage because it is a fundamental issue. The mode or method off proof is procedural and objections, if not taken at the trial, cannot be permitted at the appellate stage. If the objections to the mode off proof are permitted to be taken at the appellate stage by a party, the other side does not have an opportunity off rectifying the deficiencies. The learned Senior Counsel for the State referred to statements under section 161 off the Cr. If the objections to the mode off proof are permitted to be taken at the appellate stage by a party, the other side does not have an opportunity off rectifying the deficiencies. The learned Senior Counsel for the State referred to statements under section 161 off the Cr. P.C., 1973 as an example off documents falling under the said category off inherently inadmissible evidence. CDRs do not fall in the said category off documents. We are satisfied that an objection that CDRs are unreliable due to violation off the procedure prescribed in Section 65B (4) cannot be permitted to be raised at this stage as the objection relates to the mode or method off proof.." In view of above judgment, there is no force in the argument of the learned counsel for the appellants that prosecution has failed to prove the call details because there is no evidence of verification as per Section 65-B of the Evidence Act. 32. In view of above discussion, we are of the opinion that the prosecution has succeeded to prove the case on the basis of circumstantial evidence against accused appellant-Jitender Singh from whom blood stained shirt and blood stained knife were recovered upon which blood of 'B' group similar to the clothes of deceased was proved as per FSL report. However, the prosecution has failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt against accused appellants, Prahlad Ram and Surendra Singh. 33. Consequently, the appeal filed by the accused appellant, Surendra Singh (Appeal No. 1073/2012) is hereby allowed, the finding of conviction and sentence passed by the learned Additional Sessions Judge, Deedwana, District Nagaur vide judgment dated 19.07.2012, is hereby quashed and set aside. Accused appellant, Surendra Singh is hereby acquitted. The accused appellant, Surendra Singh is on bail, his bail bonds are hereby discharged. 34. The D.B. Criminal Appeal No.772/2012 is hereby partly allowed. The finding of conviction and sentence passed by the learned Additional Sessions Judge, Deedwana, District Nagaur vide judgment dated 19.07.2012 against accused appellant, Prahlad Ram, is hereby quashed and set aside. The accused appellant, Prahlad Ram is hereby acquitted. The accused appellant, Prahlad Ram is on bail, his bail bonds are hereby discharged. 35. The finding of conviction and sentence passed by the learned Additional Sessions Judge, Deedwana, District Nagaur vide judgment dated 19.07.2012 against accused appellant, Prahlad Ram, is hereby quashed and set aside. The accused appellant, Prahlad Ram is hereby acquitted. The accused appellant, Prahlad Ram is on bail, his bail bonds are hereby discharged. 35. However, the finding of conviction recorded by the learned trial court against accused appellant, Jitender Singh Manda, vide judgment impugned dated 19.07.2012 is hereby altered from offence under Section 302/34 to offence under Section 302 of IPC simpliciter and sentence of life imprisonment along with fine, passed by the trial court is hereby upheld. Accordingly, the appeal of accused appellant Jitender Singh Manda, is hereby dismissed. 36. Keeping in view, however, the provisions of section 437A Cr.P.C., 1973 the accused appellants, Prahlad Ram and Surendra Singh are directed to forthwith furnish personal bonds in the sum of Rs. 20,000/- and a surety bond in the like amount each, before the learned trial court, which shall be effective for a period of six months to the effect that in the event of filing of Special Leave Petition against the judgment or for grant of leave, the appellant, on receipt of notice thereof, shall appear before Hon'ble the Supreme Court.
