Vs. State of Karnataka reported in [(2024) 8 SCC 149]
esa ;g vfHkfu/kkZfjr fd;k gS fd:-
“38. Further, in H.D. Sundara v. State of Karnataka, (2023) 9
SCC 581 this Court summarised the principles governing the
exercise of appellate jurisdiction while dealing with an appeal
against acquittal under Section 378 Cr.PC as follows:
“8. xxx xxx xxx
8.1. The acquittal of the accused further
strengthens the presumption of innocence;
8.2. The appellate court, while hearing an
appeal against acquittal, is entitled to re-
appreciate the oral and documentary
evidence;
8.3. The appellate court, while deciding an
appeal against acquittal, after re-appreciating
the evidence, is required to consider whether
the view taken by the trial court is a possible
view which could have been taken on the
basis of the evidence on record;
8.4. If the view taken is a possible view, the
appellate court cannot overturn the order of
acquittal on the ground that another view was
also possible; and
8.5. The appellate court can interfere with the
order of acquittal only if it comes to a finding(Uploaded on 29/04/2026 at 02:17:16 PM)
(Downloaded on 29/04/2026 at 11:16:48 PM)
[2026:RJ-JP:17602-DB] (10 of 10) [CRLLA-869/2024]that the only conclusion which can be
recorded on the basis of the evidence on
record was that the guilt of the accused was
proved beyond a reasonable doubt and no
other conclusion was possible.”
39. Thus, it is beyond the pale of doubt that the scope of
interference by an appellate court for reversing the judgment
of acquittal recorded by the trial court in favour of the
accused has to be exercised within the four corners of the
following principles:
(a) That the judgment of acquittal suffers from
patent perversity;
(b) That the same is based on a
misreading/omission to consider material
evidence on record; and
(c) That no two reasonable views are possible
and only the view consistent with the guilt of
the accused is possible from the evidence
available on record.”
