Li”V dh xbZ gS%&
“(i) Circumstances from which the conclusion of
guilt is to be drawn should be fully
established,

(ii) the facts so established should be consistent
only with the hypothesis of the guilt of the
accused and should not be explainable on any
other hypothesis except that the accused is
guilty,

(iii) the circumstances should be of a conclusive
nature and tendency,

(iv) they should exclude every possible hypothesis
except the one to be proved and

(v) there must be a chain of evidence so
complete as not to leave any reasonable
ground for the conclusion consistent with the
innocence of the accused and must show that
in all human probability, the act must have
been done by the accused.”

“96. It is equally true that none of the witnesses
except PW-18, Asha, wife of the accused-appellant to
whom the accused-appellant confessed his guilt and
the PW-12, a Pancha, in whose presence the accused-
appellant made extra judicial confession to the Police,
is relevant to the guilt of the accused-appellant.
However, it is reiterated at the cost of repetition that
the forensic evidence supported by the evidence of
PW-18 establishes the guilt of the appellant beyond
reasonable doubt. We, thus, confirm the conviction of
the accused-appellant for the offences under Sections
302, 376(2)(f), 377 of the IPC read with Sections 3, 4
and 5 of the POCSO.”

essence prayer is to apply the principle of “falsus in
uno falsus in omnibus” (false in one thing, false in
everything). This plea is clearly untenable. Even if
major portion of evidence is found to be deficient, in
case residue is sufficient to prove guilt of an accused,
notwithstanding acquittal of number of other
co-accused persons, his conviction can be maintained.
It is the duty of Court to separate grain from chaff.
Where chaff can be separated from grain, it would be
open to the Court to convict an accused
notwithstanding the fact that evidence has been found
to be deficient to prove guilt of other accused persons.
Falsity of particular material witness or material
particular would not ruin it from the beginning to end.
The maxim “falsus in uno falsus in omnibus” has no
application in India and the witnesses cannot be
branded as liar. The maxim “falsus in uno falsus in
omnibus” has not received general acceptance nor has
this maxim come to occupy the status of rule of law. It
is merely a rule of caution. …”

“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
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

(Downloaded on 20/05/2026 at 09:42:39 PM)
[2026:RJ-JD:23708-DB] (47 of 53) [MREF-1/2024]

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

[2026:RJ-JD:23708-DB] (48 of 53) [MREF-1/2024]

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, 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.”

convict-appellant had no prior antecedents; good
conduct for the past 16-17 years of incarceration;
difficulties in mental health and 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 shall spend the remainder of his days in
jail, till his last breath, hoping to do acts of penance
to atone for the crimes he has committed and
particularly for the fact that he extinguished four
bright flames.

18. The appeals are partly allowed accordingly. The
death sentence is commuted to life imprisonment till
the end of natural life. The appeal filed by the convict-
appellant is partly allowed.”

“142. There can be no doubt that the rape and
murder of a five years old child is absolutely heinous
and barbaric, but as observed above, it cannot be said
to be in the category of rarest of rare cases.

143. In Mulla and Another v. State of U.P.: (2010) 3
SCC 508, this Court has affirmed that it is open to the
Court to prescribe the length of incarceration. This is
especially true in cases where death sentence has

been replaced by the life imprisonment. This Court
observed, “the court should be free to determine the
length of imprisonment which will suffice the offence
committed.”

144. Even though life imprisonment means
imprisonment for entire life, convicts are often
granted reprieve and/or remission of sentence after
imprisonment of not less than 14 years. In this case,
considering the heinous, revolting, abhorrent and
despicable nature of the crime committed by the
appellant, we feel that the appellant should undergo
imprisonment for life, till his natural death and no
remission of sentence be granted to him.”
