villagers, proceeded to the boring, which was situated in the
field of Suresh Yadav. There, they found Suresh Yadav lying
injured, with blood oozing from his stomach. Umesh Yadav was
tying a cloth around his injured stomach. Upon being asked,
Umesh Yadav informed him that he was going to the boring to
deliver food to Suresh Yadav when, in the meantime, 5-6
accused persons, armed with lathis and bhalas, arrived at the
boring. On noticing them, Umesh Yadav called out to Suresh
Yadav, saying “Bhaiya-Bhaiya,” asking who was present there.
As soon as Suresh Yadav woke up, the accused persons began
assaulting him. When Suresh Yadav attempted to flee towards
the north, he was assaulted in the stomach with a bhala by
accused Daso Kebat (appellant in Crl. App (DB) 802 of 2018).
The other identified accused were Saryug Yadav, Bhushan
Yadav, Sunil Yadav, and Sahdeo Yadav, who were armed with
bhalas and lathis, and who also participated in the assault upon
Suresh Yadav. The injured Suresh Yadav stated to the informant
that he was first assaulted with a bhala by Daso Kebat, and
thereafter by accused Saryug Yadav (appellant in Criminal
Appeal (DB) No. 822 of 2018), who also struck him in the
stomach with a bhala. Suresh Yadav further stated that all the
accused persons had come with the intention of committing

theft of the boring machine. Thereafter, Umesh Yadav, the
informant, and other villagers carried the injured Suresh Yadav,
who was in an unconscious state, to Sikandra Government
Hospital. However, the doctors there refused to provide
treatment. He was then taken to Mokama Hospital, where the
doctors were reportedly on leave. Subsequently, Suresh Yadav
was brought to Patna, where he was admitted to N.M.C.H.,
Patna, for treatment. During the course of treatment, he
succumbed to his injuries on Monday. The fardbeyan of the
informant, Karyanand Yadav, was recorded on 03.06.1993 at
