    FIR No. 453/18 Page No. 18
    PS Palam Village State Vs. Sanjay Sharma & Others.

    denied and further deposed that they are innocent and have
    been falsely implicated in this case.

    30. Accused persons have not led any evidence in support of their
    defence.

    31. Final arguments were advanced by Ms. Rajesh Kumari, Ld.
    Addl. PP for the State and Sh. Yogesh Kumar, Ld. Counsel
    for all the accused persons.

    SHIVALI
    BANSAL 32. Learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State contended
    Digitally signed by
    SHIVALI BANSAL
    Date: 2026.05.21
    that the complainant, in his complaint Ex. PW1/PX-1 bearing
    16:03:24 +0530

    his signatures, had specifically attributed roles to all the
    accused persons and alleged that they acted in furtherance of
    a criminal conspiracy to attempt his murder. It was argued
    that the complainant/PW1, PW2 Shanky Bhardwaj, and PW3
    Tushar Bhardwaj have resiled from their statements recorded
    under Section 161 Cr.P.C., apparently on account of having
    settled the matter with the accused persons. However, the
    MLCs of Shanky Bhardwaj (Ex. PX-9) and Tushar Bhardwaj
    (Ex. PX-10) establish that they had sustained gunshot/firearm
    injuries at Bata Chowk, Palam, on 02.12.2018 at about 11:00
    PM. Further, the MLC of Mohit (Ex. PX-11) also shows that
    he had sustained physical assault injuries on 02.12.2018. It
    was further submitted that all the aforesaid MLCs have been
    admitted by the accused persons. It was further argued that
    PW12 has duly proved the recovery of country-made pistols,
    a country-made gun, and a danda allegedly used in the
    commission of the offence, pursuant to disclosures made by
    the accused persons. The prosecution also relied upon the
    testimonies of the police witnesses, who are witnesses to the

    FIR No. 453/18 Page No. 19
    PS Palam Village State Vs. Sanjay Sharma & Others.

    recovery of the weapons of offence, seizure memos, and other
    relevant documents. It was contended that the accused
    persons had made disclosure statements regarding their
    involvement in the commission of the offence and, therefore,
    they are liable to be convicted in the present case.

    33. Per Contra, Ld. Counsel for accused persons has argued that
    the prosecution has miserably failed to prove its case. To
    SHIVALI
    BANSAL substantiate his point, he argued that the none of the
    Digitally signed by
    SHIVALI BANSAL
    Date: 2026.05.21
    prosecution witnesses has identified any of the accused
    16:03:24 +0530

    persons to be involved in the incident. Complainant on whose
    statement the FIR was registered in the present case, deposed
    that he sustained injury on his head due to fall from staircase
    and declined even taking place of incident of firing or beating
    to be committed by any of the accused persons. So far as
    alleged recovery of weapons of offence from accused persons
    is concerned, no independent witness was joined as
    mandated under the law, hence, the same is not relevant. Ld.
    Counsel has prayed that accused persons are liable to be
    acquitted in the present case.

    34. I have thoughtfully considered the arguments advanced,
    perused the material available on record, scrutinized the
    evidence led by the prosecution and gone through the relevant
    provisions of law.

    35. In the present case, besides charges S.25/27 Arms Act against
    accused Sanjay Sharma and Amit Sharma, charges under Sec.
    307
    /34 IPC have been framed against all the accused persons.
    These Sections have been elaborated as under: –

    “307. Attempt to murder.–Whoever does any act with
    such intention or knowledge, and under such

    FIR No. 453/18 Page No. 20
    PS Palam Village State Vs. Sanjay Sharma & Others.

    circumstances that, if he by that act caused death, he
    would be guilty of murder, shall be punished with
    imprisonment of either description for a term which
    may extend to ten years, and shall also be liable to fine;
    and if hurt is caused to any person by such act, the
    offender shall be liable either to imprisonment for life,
    or to such punishment as is hereinbefore mentioned.
    Attempts by life-convicts.–When any person
    offending under this section is under sentence of
    imprisonment for life, he may, if hurt is caused, be
    punished with death.

    SHIVALI 34. Acts done by several persons in furtherance of
    BANSAL common intention.–When a criminal act is done by
    Digitally signed by
    SHIVALI BANSAL
    Date: 2026.05.21
    several persons in furtherance of the common intention
    16:03:26 +0530
    of all, each of such persons is liable for that act in the
    same manner as if it were done by him alone.”

    36. In the present case, the complainant Mohit (PW1), PW2
    Shanky Bhardwaj, and PW3 Tushar Bhardwaj, who were the
    star/injured witnesses and upon whose testimonies the
    prosecution case primarily rested, have completely denied
    that the accused persons had caused injuries to them either by
    physical assault, use of firearms, or by danda. The remaining
    public witnesses have also failed to support the case of the
    prosecution. Despite being cross-examined at length by the
    learned Additional Public Prosecutor for the State, their
    testimonies remained consistent and unchanged.

    37. PW1, the complainant/injured Mohit, deposed that statement
    Ex. PW1/PX-1, on the basis of which the present FIR was
    registered, had not been recorded as per his narration. He
    further denied that accused Sanjay Sharma had fired two
    shots in the air and also fired at PW2 and PW3, resulting in
    injuries to them. He also denied that accused Amit Sharma
    had assaulted him with a danda, thereby causing injuries to

    FIR No. 453/18 Page No. 21
    PS Palam Village State Vs. Sanjay Sharma & Others.

    him. PW1 further denied that accused Amit Sharma was
    carrying a country-made gun and had struck the same on his
    head, or that accused Harsh @ Akshay was carrying an iron
    dao/chopper.

    38.PW2 Shanky Bhardwaj, though admitting that he had
    sustained a gunshot injury, stated that he did not know who
    had caused the said injury. He also denied having made
    SHIVALI
    BANSAL statement Ex. PW2/PX-1 to the police and further denied
    Digitally signed by
    SHIVALI BANSAL
    Date: 2026.05.21
    16:03:25 +0530 that any quarrel had taken place between PW1 Mohit and
    accused Harsh @ Akshay. PW2 also denied that the accused
    persons were carrying weapons or had caused injuries either
    to him or to PW1 and PW3.

    39.PW3 Tushar Bhardwaj, who was also an injured witness,
    similarly stated that he did not know who had caused the
    gunshot injury sustained by him on the date of the incident.
    In line with PW2, he further stated that statement Ex.
    PW1/PX-1 had not been recorded as per his narration. In
    substance, this witness also exonerated the accused persons
    from all allegations.

    40.PW4 Naresh Sharma, while admitting the presence of the
    accused persons at the birthday function, denied any role of
    the accused persons in causing injuries to PW1, PW2, and
    PW3. He corroborated the testimony of PW1 by stating that
    PW1 Mohit had sustained injuries due to a fall from the
    staircase. PW5 Monty Bhardwaj also denied that any
    quarrel had taken place between the accused persons on one
    side and the complainant along with his friends on the other
    side. He further denied that the accused persons were

    FIR No. 453/18 Page No. 22
    PS Palam Village State Vs. Sanjay Sharma & Others.

    carrying firearms or danda or had caused injuries to PW1,
    PW2, and PW3.

    41.PW6 Praveen Sharma, PW7 Deepak Sharma, PW8 Anant
    Jain, and PW11 Sandeep Kumar also did not attribute any
    role to the accused persons in firing gunshots or causing
    injuries to PW1, PW2, and PW3.

    42.PW9 HC Anil and PW10 SI Ravinder Kumar are formal
    SHIVALI
    BANSAL police witnesses who conducted proceedings in the present
    Digitally signed by
    SHIVALI BANSAL
    Date: 2026.05.21
    16:03:25 +0530 case. PW12 SI Pankaj had arrested all the accused persons,
    recovered weapons of offence and also recorded disclosure
    statements of these 4 accused persons. No public witness
    was joined at the time of alleged recovery of weapons. It is
    a well-settled proposition that non-joining of public witness
    shrouds doubt over the fairness of the investigation by
    police. Section 100(4) of Cr.P.C also casts a statutory duty
    on an official conducting search to join two respectable
    persons of the society. Same has not been done in the present
    case. This casts a doubt on the fairness of the
    investigation. Reliance is placed on paragraph 6 of the
    judgment in Pawan Kumar Vs. The Delhi Administration,
    1989 Cri.L.J. 127, wherein the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi
    had observed as under: –

    “… According to Jagbir Singh, he did not join any
    public witness in the case while according to
    Kalam Singh, no public person was present there.
    It hardly stands to reason that at a place like a bus
    stop near Subhas Bazar, there would be no person
    present at a crucial time like 07.30 p.m. when there
    is a lot of rush of commuters for boarding the buses
    to their respective destinations. Admittedly, there
    is no impediment in believing the version of the
    Police officials but for that the prosecution has to

    FIR No. 453/18 Page No. 23
    PS Palam Village State Vs. Sanjay Sharma & Others.

    lay a good foundation. At least one of them should
    deposed that they tried to contact the public
    witnesses or that they refused to join the
    investigation. Here is a case where no effort was
    made to join any public witness even though
    number of them were present. No plausible
    explanation from the side of the prosecution is
    forthcoming for not joining the independent
    witnesses in a case of serious nature like the
    present one. It may be that there is an apathy on the
    part of the general public to associate themselves
    with the Police raids or the recoveries but that
    SHIVALI apart, at least the I.O. should have made an earnest
    BANSAL effort to join the independent witnesses. No
    Digitally signed by
    SHIVALI BANSAL
    Date: 2026.05.21
    attempt in this direction appears to have been made
    16:03:24 +0530
    and this, by itself, is a circumstance throwing
    doubt on the arrest or the recovery of the knife
    from the person of the accused.”

    43. None of the prosecution witness has stated that any of the
    accused persons were carrying countrymade pistols,
    countrymade gun, danda and/or iron dav or that it was
    accused Sanjay Sharma who had fired gunshot at PW2 and
    PW3 or it was accused Amit Sharma who caused injuries to
    PW1 Mohit Saini or PW2 or PW3 or it was accused Harsh
    who was carrying iron dav during the incident. Hence, the
    provisions of S.25/27 Arms Act are not attracted against any
    of the accused persons.

    44. PW12 further proved the disclosure statements of accused
    persons made before the Police, however, as per provisions
    of Indian Evidence Act, same are not admissible under the
    law.

    45. In totality, nothing incriminating has come out against the
    accused persons in the evidence of all the public prosecution
    witnesses. PW1, PW2 and PW3 who are the injured persons
    and could have proved the case of the prosecution, did not
    support the story of the prosecution and other public

    FIR No. 453/18 Page No. 24
    PS Palam Village State Vs. Sanjay Sharma & Others.

    witnesses have also not attributed any role of the accused
    persons in the alleged offence. Despite cross-examination of
    all the public witnesses by Ld. Addl. PP for State, nothing
    incriminating has come against any of the accused persons.
    Remaining prosecution witnesses are mostly formal
    witnesses and their testimonies are not sufficient to prove the
    guilt of the accused persons. It is certainly discernible that the
    SHIVALI
    BANSAL prosecution has failed to ascribe any role to the accused,
    Digitally signed by
    SHIVALI BANSAL
    Date: 2026.05.21
    whom the complainant had named in the FIR.

    16:03:23 +0530

    46. The burden of proof in a criminal trial never shifts and it is
    always the burden on the prosecution to prove its case beyond
    reasonable doubt on the basis of acceptable evidence
    produced before the Court. Crime is an event in real life and
    is the product of interplay of different human emotions. In
    arriving at the conclusion about the guilt of accused, charged
    with the commission of a crime, a criminal Court has to
    ensure that facts constituting such crime are proved beyond
    the scope of any reasonable doubt. Every case in the final
    analysis would have to depend upon its own facts and merits.
    Definite doubts or lacunae in the case of the prosecution may
    result in benefit of doubt being given to the accused persons
    and consequential acquittal.

    47. It is established principle of law that if two views are
    possible, the view favourable to the accused must be
    accepted. The benefit of doubt must always go to the accused
    as the prosecution has to prove the case beyond reasonable
    doubt.

    48. The Hon’ble Apex court in Rang Bahadur Singh Vs. State of

    FIR No. 453/18 Page No. 25
    PS Palam Village State Vs. Sanjay Sharma & Others.

    U.P. reported in AIR 2000 SC 1209 has held as follows:

    “The timetested rule in that acquittal of a guilty person
    should be preferred to conviction of an innocent person.
    Unless the prosecution establishes the guilt of the accused
    beyond reasonable doubt a conviction cannot be passed on
    the accused. A criminal court cannot afford to deprive
    liberty of the appellants, lifelong liberty, without having at
    least a reasonable level of certainty that the appellants
    were the real culprits.”

    49. In yet another decision in State of U.P. Vs. Ram Veer Singh
    SHIVALI and Another
    reported in 2007(6) Supreme 164 the Hon’ble
    BANSAL
    Digitally signed by
    SHIVALI BANSAL
    Apex Court has held as follows:

    Date: 2026.05.21
    16:03:27 +0530

    “The golden thread which runs through the web of ad-
    ministration of justice in criminal cases is that if two view
    are possible on the evidence adduced in the case, one
    pointing to the guilt of the accused and the other to his
    innocence, the view which is favourable to the accused
    should be adopted. The paramount consideration of the
    Court is to ensure that miscarriage of justice is prevented.
    A miscarriage of justice which may arise from acquittal
    of the guilty is no less than from the conviction of an in-
    nocent. In a case where admissible evidence is ignored, a
    duty is cast upon the appellate Court to reappreciate the
    evidence where the accused has been acquitted, for the
    purpose of ascertaining as to whether any of the accused
    really committed any offence or not.”

    50. The Hon’ble Apex Court in Ashish Batham Vs. State of
    Madhya Pradesh
    reported in AIR 2002 SC 3206 has held as
    follows:

    “Realities or truth apart, the fundamental and basic
    presumption in the administration of criminal law and
    justice delivery system is the innocence of the alleged
    accused and till the charges are proved beyond
    reasonable doubt on the basis of clear, cogent, credible
    or unimpeachable evidence, the question of indicating
    or punishing an accused does not arise……”

    51. In the present case, due to hostile version of the public
    witnesses casts doubts on the prosecution story and two
    views are possible in this case and hence the benefit of the
    same must go to the accused persons.

    FIR No. 453/18 Page No. 26

    PS Palam Village State Vs. Sanjay Sharma & Others.

    52. For the reasons stated above, this court is of the considered
    opinion that the prosecution has failed to prove the ingredi-
    ents of offence punishable under Section 307/34 IPC against
    accused Sanjay Sharma, Amit Sharma, Ashish Sharma and
    Harsh and ingredients of offence punishable u/s 25/27 Arms
