Headnote | PENAL CODE, 1860: ss.302/149, 307/149, 452, 148 and 147 - Accused indulging in indiscriminate firing, causing death of one of their opponents and injuries to two others - Conviction and life sentence awarded by courts below - Held: The presence of the informant and injured witnesses at the place of occurrence has been sufficiently explained - Their evidence and the statement of the deceased recorded soon after the incident, the injury reports and the post-mortem report as well as the motive clearly bring home the guilt of accused-appellants -- Having regard to the extent of the injuries sustained by deceased, and the witnesses and the aggression with which the offence was committed, which resulted in the loss of life of one person considered along with the motive, there is absolutely no scope to reduce the gravity of the offence committed by the appellants and to modify the conviction and F the sentence imposed - Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 - s.161 and s.162(2) - Evidence Act, 1872 - s.32(1).Evidence Act, 1872: s. 32(1) - Dying declaration - Statement of deceased recorded by police soon after the occurrence - Factors to be considered to place reliance upon such statement as dying declaration - Explained - Held: The grievous injuries sustained by the victim on his vital parts of body and his death within 24 hours, was sufficient to reach a conclusion that whether or not he was in the expectation of his death -- The further finding of courts below that there was no scope for any manipulation at the instance of police also strengthens the reliance placed upon by prosecution on the said statement by treating the same as a dying declaration - Sub-s. (2) of s.162, CrPC makes the position clear that the statement as a dying declaration would squarely fall within the said sub-section and has to only satisfy the stipulations contained in s. 32(1) of Evidence Act- High Court rightly relied upon the said statement as a dying declaration, squarely falling within the statutory prescription of s. 32(1) of Evidence Act- Penal Code, 1860 - ss.302/149, 307/149, 452, 148 and 147 - Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 - ss.161 and 162(2). |
