“33. Coming to the next issue raised by the learned
Senior Advocate Mr. Marlapalle with regard to the trial
having not been conducted in fair manner, it may be
noted that the concept of fair trial has been enshrined
not only in Article 21 and 39 A of the Constitution of
India, but also in Section 304 of the Code of Criminal
Procedure. Free and fair trial is sine qua non of Article
21, and after the formative decision in Maneka Gandhi
vs. UOI, (1978) 1 SCC 248, it has been made clear that
the procedure in criminal trials must be right, just and
fair and not arbitrary, fanciful or oppressive. Article 39 A
provides for free legal aid to the poor and weaker
sections of the society and ensures justice for all. Section

(Downloaded on 24/07/2026 at 08:12:33 PM)
[2026:RJ-JP:34335-DB] (17 of 98) [MREF-2/2021]
304 of Cr.P.C. further provides that where in a trial before
the Court of Session, the accused is not represented by a
pleader, and where it appears to the court that the
accused has no sufficient means to engage a pleader, the
court shall assign a pleader for his defence at the
expense of the State. This Court also time and again has
emphasised the right to a fair trial by the courts, in the
letter and spirit of the right to life and personal liberty
flowing from the various guarantees enshrined in the
Constitution of India. We may hasten to add at this stage
that right to fair and speedy trial applies as much to the
victim as the accused. Right to get speedy justice applies
to the victim as well. Hence considering the gravity and
seriousness of the crime, if the trial is expedited by the
Court, it could not to be said that such trial was not fair
to the accused. Of course, while expediting the trial, it is
imperative on the Court to see that the due procedure is
followed during the course of trial.”

understood the case against him and was afforded a fair
opportunity to defend himself. In Main Pal v. State of
Haryana: (2010) 10 SCC 130, this Court explained that
the object of framing a charge is to give the accused a
clear idea of the accusations and the essential facts he
must meet, and that courts must look to the substance
rather than technicalities while assessing prejudice. …”
“15.8. This position is consistent with the principles laid
down in Kamalanantha and others v. State of Tamil
Nadu:(2005) 5 SCC 194, where active participation in
trial and full awareness of the prosecution case was
treated as decisive indicators of absence of prejudice
despite defects in the charge.”

“The present is a case where accused did not raise any
question, when they were heard at the time of framing the
charge, that the court cannot proceed without committal
made by a magistrate. Nor did they raise such a plea at
any stage either before or after the evidence was recorded
by the trial court. The convicted persons thought of raising
such a contention only when they found the decision of
this Court in Gangula Ashok (supra) as useful to them.

[2026:RJ-JP:34335-DB] (28 of 98) [MREF-2/2021]
The real question is whether the High Court necessarily
should have quashed the trial proceedings to be repeated
again only on account of the declaration of the legal
position made by Supreme Court concerning the
procedural aspect about the cases involving offences under
the SC/ST Act. A de novo trial should be the last resort
and that too only when such a course becomes so
desperately indispensable. It should be limited to the
extreme exigency to avert a failure of justice. Any
omission or even the illegality in the procedure which does
not affect the core of the case is not a ground for ordering
a de novo trial. This is because the appellate court has
plenary powers for re-evaluating or re-appraising the
evidence and even to take additional evidence by the
appellate court itself or to direct such additional evidence
to be collected by the trial court. But to replay the whole
laborious exercise after erasing the bulky records relating
to the earlier proceedings, by bringing down all the
persons to the court once again for repeating the whole
depositions would be a sheer waste of time, energy and
costs unless there is miscarriage of justice otherwise.
Hence the said course can be resorted to when it becomes
unpreventable for the purpose of averting a failure of
justice. The superior court which orders a de novo trial
cannot afford to overlook the realities and the serious
impact on the pending cases in trial courts which are
crammed with dockets, and how much that order would
inflict hardship on many innocent persons who once took
all the troubles to reach the court and deposed their
versions in the very same case. To them and the public
the re-enactment of the whole labour might give the
impression that law is more pedantic than pragmatic. Law
is not an instrument to be used for inflicting sufferings on
the people but for the process of justice dispensation.”

directing a fresh trial and cautioned that appellate courts
must not set aside proceedings merely on account of
procedural irregularities unless such irregularity has
resulted in a failure of justice. It was observed that
Section 465 Cr.P.C. embodies a legislative mandate

the trial is vitiated by serious illegality, lack of jurisdiction,
or where the parties were prevented from leading material
evidence, resulting in there being no real trial in the eyes
of law. The relevant paragraph reads as under:
“12. “De novo” trial means a “new trial” ordered by an
appellate court in exceptional cases when the original trial
failed to make a determination in a manner dictated by
law. The trial is conducted afresh by the court as if there
had not been a trial in fiÙkst instance. Undoubtedly, the
appellate court has power to direct the lower court to
hold “de novo” trial. But the question is when such power
should be exercised. As stated in Ukha Kolhe v. State of
Maharashtra [Ukha Kolhe v. State of Maharashtra, (1964)
1 SCR 926 : AIR 1963 SC 1531: (1963) 2 Cri LJ 418], the
Court held that: (AIR p. 1537, para 11)“11. An order for retrial of a criminal case is made
in exceptional cases, and not unless the appellate
court is satisfied that the Court trying the
proceeding had no jurisdiction to try it or that the
trial was vitiated by serious illegalities or
irregularities or on account of misconception of the
nature of the proceedings and on that account in
substance there had been no real trial or that the
prosecutor or an accused was, for reasons over
which he had no control, prevented from leading or
tendering evidence material to the charge, and in
the interests of justice the appellate court deems it
appropriate, having regard to the circumstances of
the case, that the accused should be put on his
trial again. An order of retrial wipes out from the
record the earlier proceeding, and exposes the
person accused to another trial which affords the
prosecutor an opportunity to rectify the infirmities
disclosed in the earlier trial, and will not ordinarily
be countenanced when it is made merely to enable
the prosecutor to lead evidence which he could but
has not cared to lead either on account of
insufficient appreciation of the nature of the case
or for other reasons.”

India in judgment dated September 22, 2025, in SLP (Crl)
No. 969/2025, Central Bureau of Investigation vs. Mir
Usman @ Ara @ Mir Usman Ali, all the Subordinate Courts
are hereby directed that:-
(1)The proceedings in every inquiry or trial shall be
held expeditiously.
(2) When the stage of examination of witnesses
starts, such examination shall be continued from
day-to-day until all the witnesses in the attendance
have been examined except for special reasons to be
recorded in writing.
(3) When the witnesses are in attendance before the
Court, no adjournment or postponement shall be
granted without examining them, except for special
reasons to be recorded in writing.
(4) The Court should not grant the adjournment to
suit the convenience of the advocate concerned(Uploaded on 24/07/2026 at 03:40:24 PM)

bereavement in the family and similar exceptional
reasons duly supported by memo. Be it noted that
the said inconvenience of an advocate is not a
“Special Reason” for the purpose of bypassing the
immunity of Section 309 of the Cr.P.C.
(5) In case of non-cooperation of accused or his
counsel; the following shall be kept in mind:-
(a) In case of non-cooperation of the counsel, the
Court shall satisfy itself whether the non-
cooperation is in active collusion with the accused
to delay the trial. If it is so satisfied for reasons to
be recorded in writing, it may, if the accused is on
bail, put the accused on notice to show cause why
the bail cannot be cancelled.
(b) In cases where the accused is not in collusion
with lawyer and it is the lawyer who is not
cooperating with the trial, the Court may for
reason to be recorded, appoint an amicus curiae
for the accused and fix a date for proceeding with
cross-examination/trial.
(c) The Court may also in appropriate cases
impose cost on the accused commensurate with
the loss suffered by the witness including the
expenses to attend the court.
(d) In case when the accused is absent and the
witness is present for examination, in that case
the Court can cancel the bail of accused if he is
on bail. (Unless an application is made on his
behalf seeking permission for his counsel to
proceed to examine the witness present even in
his absence, provided the accused gives an

undertaking in writing that, he would not dispute,
his identity as a particular accused in the case.)
(6) The Presiding Officer of each Court may evolve
the system for framing a schedule of constructive
working days for examination of witnesses in each
case, well in advance, after ascertaining the
convenience of counsel on both sides.
(7) The summons or process could be handed over
to the Public Prosecutor in-charge of the case to
cause them to be served on the witnesses, as per
schedule fixed by the Court.

“21. The prosecutor in the present case, in our view,
seemed to have missed his duty as an officer of the Court.
Change of counsel; belated appointment of Amicus Curiae/
defence counsel; closure of opportunity to cross-examine;
recording of evidence in the absence of defence counsel
are all factors that the prosecutor, in their solemn duty
ought to have objected to and brought to the notice of the
Court, as contravening the principle of a fair trial. The
relevant orders in this regard stand extracted as part of
Para 13 of this opinion.”

investigating agency and also by the Trial Court in such
matters. The constitutional guarantees of equality before
law, protection of life and personal liberty, protection in
respect of conviction, and protection against the arrest and
detention, do not expand into a corresponding right with
an accused person to question the swiftness of
investigation and expeditious proceedings of the trial or to
suggest that he has to be tried at a pace of his choice. It
sounds rather preposterous that an accused would
question the trial proceedings only because of the pace
maintained by the prosecution and the Trial Court so as to
take the trial to its logical conclusion at the earliest. While
rejecting the contentions urged on behalf of the appellant,
we would rather observe that the speed and pace
expected in the cases like the present one, per force,
require utmost expedition by the investigating agency as
also by the Trial Court.
35.4. The contention that the appellant was deprived of
his right of defence and he was given services of an
inexperienced counsel remain too far-stretched and rather
unjustified. Apart that no such grievance was ever
suggested before the Trial Court or even before the High
Court, we find from the record that legal aid counsel was
appointed at the request of the appellant himself and in
fact, the Trial Court proceeded with the matter only after
appointment of a counsel for the appellant. A perusal of
the record further makes it clear that the legal aid counsel
left no stone unturned to defend the appellant and
thoroughly cross-examined each and every witness to the
minutest and minor details. He contested every
proposition of the prosecution and even the application for
recalling of PW-1 (only for the purpose of identification of
the clothes of deceased, which were received later from
FSL) was also thoroughly contested by him by filing a reply
and contending that the prosecution was trying to fill up a

lacuna in their case. Hereinbefore, we have referred to the
extensive contentions urged on behalf of the accused-
appellant by the legal aid counsel, as dealt with by the
Trial Court in its judgment dated 28.09.2013.
Having examined the record, we find the criticism in this
appeal against the conduct of case by the legal aid counsel
to be unwarranted and rather unfair. The said counsel had
indeed faithfully discharged his duties and had thoroughly
defended the appellant. As regards the defence version, it
has not been shown if the appellant ever suggested to the
counsel about his desire to have one or more meetings
with him or to confer with him about any particular line of
defence. We are constrained to observe that the negative
comments qua the said legal aid counsel cannot be
countenanced and raising of such contentions in this
appeal is difficult to be appreciated; these contentions are
rejected in toto.”

“As observed by this Court in Ramsinh Bavaji Jadeja v.
State of Gujarat, [1994] 2 SCC 685, the question as to at
what stage the investigation commences has to be
considered and examined on the facts of each case,
especially, when the information of an alleged cognizable
offence has been given on telephone. Any telephonic
information about commission of a cognizable offence, if
any, irrespective of the nature and details of such
information cannot be treated as first information report.
If the telephonic message is cryptic in nature and the
officer in charge, proceeds to the place of occurrence on
the basis of that information to find out the details of the
nature of the offence if any, then it cannot be said that the
information which had been received by him on telephone
shall be deemed to be a FIR. The object and purpose of
giving such telephonic message is not to lodge the first
information report but to make the officer in charge of the

“47. … it is evident that an additional link is available in
this case owing to the failure on the part of the appellant
to explain all the aforesaid incriminating circumstances.
While being examined under Section 313, Cr.P.C. in
respect of all questions his answers were either ‘it is false’
or ‘I do not know’. There is absolutely no case for the
appellant that all the incriminating circum- stances were
not put to him. In view of Pattu Rajan’s case (supra) and
other decisions such as, Trimukh Maroti Kirkan Vs. State
of Maharashtra (2006 AIR SCW 5300) offering no
explanation on incriminating cir- cumstances mentioned
above would become an additional link in the chain of
circumstances. The cumulative effect of all the aforesaid
circumstances, referred to in detail hereinbefore, would
definitely justify the finding of the High Court as to the
guilt of the appellant.” …emphasis supplied

“… In case of children who are incapable of offering any
resistance external marks of violence may not be found.
(See Modis Medical Jurisprudence, 22nd Edn., p.502). It
is true that marks of external injury have not been found

on the person of the accused but that by itself does not
negate the prosecution case. Modi has opined (see, Modi
ibid, page 509) that even in the case of a child victim
being ravished by a grown up person it is not necessary
that there should always be marks of injuries on the
penis in such cases. Further, it is to be noted that about
two days had elapsed between the time of the incident
and medical examination of the accused within which
time minor injuries, even if caused, might have
healed. …”

“21. We do not find any substance in this submission of
Mr. Mishra. Statement under Section 313 of the Code of
Criminal Procedure is taken into consideration to
appreciate the truthfullness or otherwise of the case of
prosecution and it is not an evidence. Statement of an
accused under Section 313 of the Code of Criminal
Procedure is recorded without administering oath and,
therefore, said statement cannot be treated as evidence
within the meaning of Section 3 of the Evidence Act.
Appellants have not chosen to examine any other witness
to support this plea and in case none was available they
were free to examine themselves in terms of Section 315
of the Code of Criminal Procedure which, inter alia,
provides that a person accused of an offence is a
competent witness of the defence and may give evidence
on oath in disproof of the charges. There is reason not to
treat the statement under Section 313 of the Code of
Criminal Procedure as evidence as the accused cannot be
cross-examined, with reference to those statements.
However, when an accused appears as witness in defence

[2026:RJ-JP:34335-DB] (84 of 98) [MREF-2/2021]
to disproof the charge, his version can be tested by his
cross-examination. Therefore, in our opinion the plea of
the appellant Dinesh Kumar that he had taken lift in the
car is not fit to be accepted only on the basis of the
statements of the appellants under Section 313 of the
Code of Criminal Procedure.”

“21. In Machhi Singh‘s case (supra), it was
observed:-
“The following questions may be asked and
answered as a test to determine the ‘Rarest
of the Rare’ case in which death sentence
can be inflicted:-
(a) Is there something uncommon about the
crime which renders sentence of
imprisonment for life inadequate and calls
for a death sentence?
(b) Are the circumstances of the crime such
that there is no alternative but to impose
death sentence even after according
maximum weightage to the mitigating
circumstances which speak in favour of the
offender?”
23. In Rarest of Rare cases when the collective
conscience of the community is so shocked, that it
will expect the holders of the judicial power center to
inflict death penalty irrespective of their personal
opinion as regards desirability or otherwise of
retaining death penalty, death sentence can be
awarded. The community may entertain such
sentiment in the following circumstances:-
(1) When the murder is committed in an
extremely brutal, grotesque, diabolical,
revolting, or dastardly manner so as to(Uploaded on 24/07/2026 at 03:40:24 PM)

[2026:RJ-JP:34335-DB] (92 of 98) [MREF-2/2021]arouse intense and extreme indignation of
the community.
(2) When the murder is committed for a
motive which evinces total depravity and
meanness; e.g. murder by hired assassin
for money or reward; or cold-blooded
murder for gains of a person vis-a-vis
whom the murderer is in a dominating
position or in a position of trust; or murder
is committed in the course for betrayal of
the motherland.
(3) When murder of a member of a
Scheduled Caste or minority community
etc., is committed not for personal reasons
but in circumstances which arouse social
wrath, or in cases of ‘bride burning’ or
‘dowry deaths’ or when murder is
committed in order to remarry for the sake
of extracting dowry once again or to marry
another woman on account of infatuation.
(4) When the crime is enormous is
proportion. For instance when multiple
murders, say of all or almost all the
members of a family or a large number of
persons of a particular caste, community,
or locality, are committed.
(5) When the victim of murder is an
innocent child, or a helpless woman or old
or infirm person or a person vis-a-vis whom
the murderer is in a dominating position, or
a public figure generally loved and
respected by the community.

29. As the background facts go to show the genesis
of dispute between the accused and the other
members of his family was land. Accused seems to
have taken exception to his father taking away the
land from him. As the evidence indicates, he
considered his brother, sister-in-law to be
responsible for the same. It is also in evidence that
2-3 days before the occurrence, there was a bitter
quarrel between the accused and other members of
his family. Evidence of PW-7 is to the effect that
there used to be constant quarrel between PW-6,
deceased Jai Bhagwan, deceased Saroj on one hand
and the accused on the other, over ancestral land. It
is also in evidence that the deceased Jai Bhagwan
was not of moral character and PW-6 had forcibly
occupied the land of temple for which villagers had
set on fire a piece of their house. Though injuries on
accused person do not per se affect prosecution
version if reliable; when not explained it assumes
importance if they are serious in nature. The fact
that the injuries were sustained in the present case
by the accused is not disputed. In fact, PW-7 has
admitted that PW-6 had given a thorough thrashing
to the accused in the court-yard after assaults on the
three accused persons. As the medical evidence
indicates, the injuries sustained by the accused were
of very serious nature. It is true three lives have
been lost. But at the same time, the mental
condition of the accused which led to the assault
cannot be lost sight of. The same may not be
relevant to judge culpability. But is certainly a factor
while considering question of sentence. There is no
evidence of any diabolic planning to commit the
crime, though cruel was the act. Deprived of his
livelihood on account of the land being taken away,(Uploaded on 24/07/2026 at 03:40:24 PM)
(Downloaded on 24/07/2026 at 08:12:34 PM)
[2026:RJ-JP:34335-DB] (94 of 98) [MREF-2/2021]the accused was, as the evidence shows, exhibiting
his displeasure, his resentment. Frequency of the
quarrels indicate lack of any sinister planning to take
away lives of the deceased. The factual scenario
gives impressions of impulsive act and not planned
assaults. In the peculiar background, death sentence
would not be proper. A sentence of imprisonment for
life will be more appropriate. The sentence is
accordingly modified, while confirming the conviction
for offence punishable under Section 302 IPC.”

that the convict-appellant had no prior antecedents;
good conduct for the past 16-17 years of

consistent efforts at being a model prisoner, we find
that the imposition of death penalty would be
unjustified. He is, therefore, removed from death
row. However, considering the severity of the crime,
the number of persons killed, that out of five four
were his own children, we are of the view that he
does not deserve to be set free and direct that he

He comes from a rural background. The State has
