The prosecution case was that on the day of occurrence, the police learnt about hospitalization of a person because of bullet injuries. When the police reached the hospital, they were informed that the victim was brought dead at 1.30 a.m. The police then reached the house of the deceased and finding the narration of his wife absolutely false, arrested the appellants. In the investigation, illicit relationship between the two accused appellants surfaced. Both of them confessed to the Investigating Officer, which led to recovery of a knife, a skipping rope and its missing handle from the house. The post-mortem report indicated that the death was caused by strangulation, and there was no bullet injury on the ·chest but it was a stab injury with a knife. The trial court convicted both the accused u/s 302/34 IPC and sentenced them to life imprisonment. The High Court dismissed their appeal. |
