Ram Rati wife of Beni Ram alarmed.On their alarm Subedar Khan resident of the same village and Ram Singh of village Bharuwa arrived.All of them tried to save Beni Ram but accused threatened to them of dire consequences.After killing Beni Ram, assailants went away towards village through the bank of river.On the oral information of Shyam Bihari (P.W.1) Case Crime No.258 of 1991, under Sections 147, 148, 302 I.P.C. was registered on 22.11.1991 at 15:30 p.m. under chik F.I.R.

P.W.1 Shyam Bihari has stated that his report was scribed in the police station on his dictation and after hearing it, he had put his thumb impression and he has proved it as Ext.Hon'ble Ali Zamin,J.(Per : Ali Zamin, J.)1. Heard Sri Apul Mishra alongwith Sri Rahul Mishra and Sri Raghuvansh Misra, learned counsel for the appellants and Sri Ajit Ray, learned A.G.A. for the respondent and perused the material on record.This appeal has been filed against the judgement and order dated 29.01.2002 passed in Session Trial No.568 of 1996 (State vs. Ram Bahadur and 3 others), Police Station Beesalpur, District Pilibhit by which learned Additional Session Judge, Pilibhit has convicted the appellants-accused Ram Chander, Ram Shankar, Ram Bharosey and Ram Bahadur and sentenced appellant Ram Chander to undergo two years rigorous imprisonment under Section 148, appellants Ram Shankar, Ram Bharosey and Ram Bahadur have been sentenced to undergo one year rigorous imprisonment under Section 147 I.P.C. and all the appellants have been sentenced to undergo life imprisonment and fine of Rs.2000 under Section 302 read with Section 149 I.P.C. in default of fine to undergo further a period of 6 months additional imprisonment.In brief facts of the prosecution case are that Gaon Sabha land was allotted on lease to the deceased Beni Ram, brother of the informant in which one Sunder Lal (since died during trial) was claiming his land.Munendra Pal Singh village head (Pradhan) resident of village Bharuwa settled the dispute between them a day before the incident and it was decided that Beni Ram will leave three and half bigha land in favour of Sunder Lal.On 22.11.1991 at 11:00 A.M. Ram Bahadur, Sunder Lal of the village came to the house of deceased Beni Ram having spade in hand and asked for measurement as decided yesterday, on which Beni Ram (deceased), Shyam Bihari (informant) and Smt. Ram Rati wife of Beni Ram proceeded for measurement taking gattha of wood (log) and rope.When they reached at 1:00 p.m. on the field, Ram Chander having a spear in hand, Ram Shankar and Rama Bharosey met there.Dr. A.K. Sharma (P.W.3) conducted post-mortem on 23.11.1991 at 3:30 P.M. and prepared report Ex.Ka-2, according to which following injuries were found on the body of the deceased Beni Ram:Incised wound 14 c.m. x 7 c.m. cavity deep at the front of abdomen 5 c.m.below the umbilicus, intestine coming out.Incised wound 9 c.m. x 5 c.m.below trachea the left ear and running below mandible, left carotid artery jagutar vein cut.Incised wound 4 c.m. x 3 c.m.x muscle deep right side of the neck, 3 c.m.below the left angle at mandible on deep dissection carotid artery cut.Incised wound 1 c.m.Incised wound 3 c.m. x 1 c.m. bone deep on the back of right shoulder scapula.Incised wound 5 c.m. x 1 c.m. bone deep on the back of right shoulder 1 c.m. above injury no.5 cardio process of right scapula cut.Incised wound 1 c.m.x 5.7 c.m. x chest cavity deep over the angle of right scapula.Abrasion 3 c.m.x 1 c.m.on the inner end of right collar bone.Abrasion 7 c.m.x 1 c.m.over the left side of neck 5 c.m. above the middle left collar bone.In his opinion cause of death was shock & haemorrhage due to ante-mortem injuries and death of the deceased was near about one day old.After dispatching the dead body for post-mortem Investigating Officer inspected the place of incident and prepared spot map Ext.He also took into possession rope, log (lattha), blood stained and plain earth (sand), spade along with handle, old towel and prepared memo Ext.After completing the investigation submitted charge sheet Ext.Ka-3 under Sections 147, 148, 302 I.P.C. against the accused-appellants before the C.J.M., Pilibhit, who committed accused for trial to the court of Sessions Judge where Case Crime No.258/1991 was registered as Session Trial No.568 of 1996 (State vs. Ram Bahadur and others).The Sessions Judge transferred it to the court of Special Judge (E.C. Act), Pilibhit for trial.The trial court framed charge under 147 and 302/149 I.P.C. against the accused-appellants Ram Bahadur, Ram Shankar, Ram Bharosey and under Section 148, 302/149 I.P.C. against accused-appellants Sunder Lal and Ram Chander.The accused denied the charge and claimed trial.Prosecution to prove its case has produced six witnesses.P.W.1 Shyam Bihari informant, P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati are witnesses of fact while P.W.3 Dr. A.K. Sharma conducted post-mortem, P.W.4 Mohd. Anees second Investigation Officer, P.W.5 Gyan Singh first Investigating Officer and P.W.6 Constable Narendra Pal Singh are formal witnesses.The accused-appellants in their examination under Section 313 Cr.P.C., have stated that the witnesses have deposed against them due to enmity and denied the prosecution case, but they led no evidence in their defence.Trial court after hearing learned counsel for the parties and perusal of records has passed the impugned judgement and order.Hence, this appeal.9. Learned counsel for the appellant No.2 Ram Bharosey, appellant No.3 Ram Bahadur and appellant No.4 Ram Shanker, Sri Apul Mishra has submitted that appellants are not connected with the offence.He further submitted that if the whole story of prosecution as stated by P.W.1 Shyam Bihari is accepted that the appellants grappled the deceased, then it was not their intent to commit murder covered under Section 34 of I.P.C. In support of his contention he relied on the following judgements of Hon'ble Supreme Court:Learned counsel for the appellant no.1 Ram Chander, Sri Rahul Mishra assisted by Sri Raghuvans Mishra has submitted that P.W.1 Shyam Bihari has specifically stated that he reached the place of incident at 1:00 P.M. going from the police station whereas per chik report Ext.Ka-1 first information report has been registered at 3:30 P.M. Shyam Bihari has also stated that he met daroga and put his thumb impression on the paper when he came police station along with the dead body.He has also stated that he reached police station along with the dead body at 10:00 P.M. in the night while P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati has stated that the dead body reached police station at 6:00 P.M. and Shyam Bihari was also along with her.Both witnesses also stated that their statements might have been recorded on the same day, from which it becomes clear that first information report is anti-timed.It is also submitted that on the point of lodging F.I.R. and reaching of the informant to the police station question could have been put to the scribe of the chik and G.D. but scribe of chik and G.D. has not been produced by the prosecution so he has been deprived of the opportunity of cross-examination also.He has also submitted that according to prosecution a spear injury was caused to the deceased in the stomach.Injury by spear will be punctured one but according to post-mortem report injury no.1 has been found to be stomach injury cavity deep incised wound of 14 c.m. x 7 c.m.Thus, the injury alleged to have been caused by spear does not match with the medical report.His next submission is that according to P.W.1 Shyam Bihari the incident took place 20 steps away from the west side of the river and its natural sense will be that incident took place towards west side of the river while P.W.5 Investigating Officer Gyan Singh has stated that the dead body was at a distance of 20 steps in the east from the river, as such from the prosecution evidence place of occurrence is also not established.He further submitted that Smt. Ram Rati has stated that in the incident her forefinger of right hand was cut off but there is no medical report to support her statement and Investigating Officer has stated that if finger of Smt. Ram Rati was cut off then she must have told him and he would have got her medically examined thus Investigating Officer does not support her statement, which makes her presence at the spot doubtful.Next submission is that P.W.1 Shyam Bihari has stated that he was residing along with his son in Sitarganj and he was residing separate with his deceased brother.What was occasion to come on the day of incident has not been explained.Therefore, his presence at the time of incident is doubtful.Lastly he has submitted that P.W.1 Shyam Bihari informant is brother, Smt. Ram Rati is wife of the deceased, both are highly interested witnesses.P.W.1 Shyam Bihari states that he does not know about share and side of the deceased land.He also states that as soon as the accused reached on the field, the accused grappled with his brother while P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati states that reaching the field marking for partition were made, talks took place between them, near about half an hour period was spent in the field and when her husband sat to smoke chilam, incident took place.Thus, inference will be either P.W.1 Shyam Bihari or P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati is telling a lie or both of them are telling a lie.Learned counsel prayed that prosecution has failed to prove the charge beyond reasonable doubt against the appellants.The impugned judgement and order is not sustainable.Accordingly, judgement and order is liable to be set aside and appellants are liable to be acquitted.On the other hand Sri Ajit Ray, learned A.G.A. for the respondent submits that on the basis of oral information of the informant Shyam Bihari, F.I.R. Ext.Ka-1 was registered at 3:30 P.M. and in Ext.Ka-1 itself time of the incident has been mentioned 1:00 P.M., not a single question has been put by the defence from the witness P.W.6 Narendra Pal Singh regarding the time of registration of the case.The informant P.W.1 Shyam Bihari, P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati are rustic persons and their statements in the trial court have been recorded near about after lapse of 6 years from the date of incident.According to Prabhu Dayal v/s State of Rajasthan (2018) 3 SCC (Cr.) 518 rustic witnesses can develop a tendency to exaggerate and this does not make that the entire testimony of such witnesses is falsehood.Minor contradiction in the testimony of witnesses are not fatal to the prosecution case.In State of Karnataka v/s Suvarnamma (2015) 1 SCC (Crl.) 663, Hon'ble Supreme Court has held that in regard to exact time of an incident or the time of duration of an occurrence, usually people make their estimates by guess work on the spur of the moment at the time of interrogation.It depends on the time sense of individuals which varies from person to person.A witness is liable to be overawed by the court atmosphere and piercing cross-examination by the counsel and out of nervousness mix up facts, get confused regarding sequence of events or fill up details from imagination on the spur of the moment the witnesses nowdays go on adding embellishments to their version perhaps for the fear of their testimony being rejected by the court.The courts should not disbelieve the evidence of such witnesses altogether if they are otherwise trustworthy.So, on the basis of the statement of informant Shyam Bihari and P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati, it cannot be said that the F.I.R. is anti-timed.Placing reliance on Vijai Pal v/s State (Govt. of NCT Delhi) (2015) 2 SCC (Cr.) 733, he has submitted that value of medical evidence is only corroborative and testimony of Shyam Bihari and Smt. Ram Rati with regard to causing spear injury in stomach by Ram Chander is intact and their statements in this regard are reliable.He also submitted that P.W.1 Shyam Bihari and P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati have stated that after taking meal they had gone to the field which is corroborated by medical evidence as in post-mortem report Doctor has also found that 2-3 hours before the incident deceased could have taken meal.Shyam Bihari has stated that he lived separately with the deceased in the village and he also lived at Sitarganj along with his son.In his cross-examination nothing has been elicited from which it can be inferred that on the date of incident he was not present on the spot and in the village, where the incident took place.The spot map Ext.ka-12 has been proved by the Investigating Officer P.W.5 Sub-Inspector Gyan Singh, who had taken the blood stained and plain sands from the place of incident and it has been sent to Forensic Science Laboratory, Agra.According to expert report human blood has been found on it from which the place of occurrence is established.Shyam Bihari has stated that place of incident is 20 steps away from the west side of the river.On the basis of his statement it cannot be inferred that the place of incident is changed.He has further submitted that the witnesses have stated that in murder of Jagdish, case was registered against the deceased.He has also stated that a gangster case was also registered against the deceased brother and another case under Section 25 Arms Act was also registered against him which indicates that the witness is not concealing the facts but speaking truly, thus he is reliable and trustworthy witness.Lastly he has submitted that so far as discrepancy regarding incident taking place on reaching the place of incident and after sometime reaching the place of incident is concerned due to the lapse of time and witnesses being rustic one, this discrepancy has taken place but P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati has stated that on reaching the spot places were dug for marking in which half an hour was spent and when her husband sat for smoking chilam the incident was caused.She has also stated that from the house in reaching the spot it took half an hour.The estimated time has been told by the witness which also corroborate the time of incident to be 1:00 P.M. mentioned in the F.I.R. Ext.He submitted that from the evidences produced by the prosecution charges are fully proved against the appellants.The trial court has rightly convicted and sentenced the appellants-accused.In cross-examination P.W.1 Shyam Bihari has stated that he reached the spot at 1:00 P.M. going from the police station, while as per F.I.R. Ext.Ka-1, the report of the incident has been made on 22.11.1991 at 15:30 P.M. In cross-examination Shyam Bihari has also stated that dead body reached the police station at 10:00 P.M. P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati has stated that dead body came to the police station at 6:00 P.M. As such there is a discrepancy between statements of Shyam Bihari and Smt. Ram Rati with regard to reaching the dead body at the police station.P.W.1 Shyam Bihari has stated that by dictating he lodged the report and after hearing it, he had put his thumb impression.From his statement it is very much clear that when he went to the police station for lodging report at that very time after dictating and hearing the report he put his thumb impression on the report.He has also stated that he is illiterate and he by profession is a farmer.P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati has also stated that she is illiterate.As per F.I.R. Ext.Ka-1 informant Shyam Bihari is by caste Dhobi (washerman).The sub- conscious mind of the witness sometimes so operates on account of the fear of looking foolish or being disbelieved though the witness is giving a truthful and honest account of the occurrence witnessed by him -- Perhaps it is a sort of a psychological defence mechanism activated on the spur of the moment."In the instant case the incident has occurred on 22.11.1991 and statement of P.W.1 Shyam Bihari was recorded on 23.10.1997 and statement of P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati was started on 23.10.1997 and completed on 03.03.1998 i.e. the statements of both witnesses were recorded near about after a lapse of six years.In the first information report, Ext.Ka-1 the time of incident has been mentioned 1:00 P.M. and time of giving information to the police station is mentioned as 15:30 P.M. The witness has stated very clearly that he reached the police station and at the police station he had no talk with the daroga.This much talk too did not take place that you reach on the spot.Further he has stated that after lodging report he had gone at the spot and he reached on the spot from the police station at about 1:00 P.M. in the afternoon.It appears that due to his testimony being recorded after a lapse of six years from the date of incident and witness is also a rustic witness overawed by the court atmosphere and piercing cross-examination made by counsel and out of nervousness mixing up facts, getting confused regarding sequence of events or fill up details from imagination on the spur of the moment as held by Hon'ble Supreme Court in Bharwada Bhoginbhai Hirjibhai v/s State of Gujarat, (supra), he has stated that he reached on the spot at 1:00 P.M. going from the police station.Informant Shyam Bihari has further stated that he had talk with darogaji at the police station at the time when he made thumb impression on the paper.He has also stated that when he came along with the dead body at the police station then he had met darogaji.He has clearly stated that after lodging report he had gone on the spot.From his whole statement it is clear that after lodging the report, informant Shyam Bihari returned to the spot thereafter dead body of the deceased was taken to the police station.It appears that due to statement being recorded after six years from the date of incident and informant being rustic one out of nervousness mixing the fact with regard to putting thumb impression has stated that he put his thumb impression on papers when he met darogaji on coming along with dead body.Considering his whole statement it can't be inferred that he lodged the report when dead body reached the police station.Thus, on the basis of statements of P.W.1 Shyam Bihari that he reached the place of incident at 1:00 P.M. going from the police station and statement of Smt. Ram Rati as well as his statement with regard to time of reaching dead body at the police station, time of lodging F.I.R. 15:30 P.M. mentioned in Ext.Ka-1 and informant's putting thumb impression on paper when he met daroga along with dead body, it can't be inferred that F.I.R. was lodged when dead body reached the police station.In view of the above discussion, we do not find any substance in the contention of learned counsel for the appellants that F.I.R. is anti timed.24. P.W.1 Shyam Bihari in his cross-examination has stated that the incident has taken place at a distance about 20 steps from the west side of the river and as per P.W.5 Gyan Singh Investigating Officer and spot map Ext.Ka-12 distance of the dead body from the river is 22 steps towards east of the river.The veracity of spot map Ext.Ka-12 proved by Investigating Officer P.W.5 Gyan Singh has not been disputed by the defence.In the Ext.Ka-12 dead body has been shown at place marked as ''D' which is towards east of the river and distance of the dead body from the east of the river has been shown to be 22 steps.P.W.1 Shyam Bihari has stated that the incident took place at about 20 steps from the west side of the river which cannot be taken as the dead body was 20 steps towards west from the west side of the river.It is tact of the counsel as to how he puts question to a witness.Ka-13 Investigating Officer took into his possession blood stained (sand) from the place of incident.He also took into his possession the towel from which legs of deceased alleged to have been tied and a spade shown in the spot map at place F was found.According to scientific report available on record human blood were found on the materials recovered from the place of incident.These facts clearly establish the place of incident towards east of the river.As such prosecution regarding place of incident is consistent, corroborated and reliable.In view of the above, we also find no substance in the contention of learned counsel for the appellants that on the basis of statement of informant P.W.1 Shyam Bihari and P.W.5 Investigating Officer, Gyan Singh, place of incident is not established.As per post-mortem report Ext.Ka-2, seven incised wounds and two abrasions have been found on the person of the deceased, in which injury no.1 is incised wound 14 cm.x 7 cm.cavity deep at the front of abdomen 5 c.m.below the umbilicus, intestine coming out.In Ext.Ka-1 proved by P.W.1 Shyam Bihari, it has been mentioned that Ram Sunder inflicted spear injury on the stomach.P.W.1 Shyam Bihari through his testimony also has supported the prosecution version and has stated that accused Ram Chander caused spear injury in the stomach of deceased Beni Ram.P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati too supporting the prosecution story has stated that Ram Chander caused spear injury in the stomach of her husband.Statement of both the witnesses regarding inflicting spear injury in the stomach of deceased Beni Ram by appellant-accused Ram Chander has not been impeached.Thus, the statement of P.W.1 Shyam Bihari and P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati is consistent and corroborative to each other.For instance, while the accused were armed with kantas and spears, only one punctured wound was found.The use which the defence can make of the medical evidence is to prove that the injuries could not possibly have been caused in the manner alleged and thereby discredit the eye-witnesses.The significance of the evidence of the doctor lies vis--vis the injuries appearing on the body of the deceased person and likely use of the weapon and it would then be the prosecutor's duty and obligation to have the corroborative evidence available on record from the other prosecution witnesses.In cross-examination she has stated that she had shown the cut finger to the Investigating Officer.The Investigating Officer P.W.5 Gyan Singh has stated that he cannot tell whether finger of Smt. Ram Rati was cut or not.Smt. Ram Rati had not received any injury and her finger was not cut, if it happened, so, then she certainly would have told him and he would have got her medically examined for the same.In first information report, it is mentioned that along with deceased Beni Ram, Smt. Ram Rati had also gone at the place of incident.In spot map Ext.Ka-12 at place-1 shown in a circle presence of wife of the deceased has been mentioned.As per statement of P.W.5 Gyan Singh, the spot map was prepared on the day of incident and from cross-examination nothing has been extracted so that its veracity can be doubted.P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati has also stated that she had accompanied her husband and in her cross-examination by defence nothing material has been extracted, so that her presence on the spot at the time of incident can be doubted.P.W.1 Shyam Bihari in examination-in-chief as well as in cross-examination has stated that he and his sister-in-law (bhabhi) were present on the spot together.He has also stated that due to fear of accused his bhabhi did not go to the deceased to save him.Thus, with regard to presence of P.W.1 Shyam Bihari and P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati at the time of incident on the spot, prosecution evidence is consistent, corroborative to each other.P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati in last day of her cross-examination has stated that when her husband was caught, tied and killed she cried and wept, five persons were there so, she could not dare save him.As such the prosecution evidence of P.W.1 Shyam Bihari and P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati is consistent and corroborated to each other that due to fear of accused, Smt. Ram Rati did not go to the deceased to save him which in the facts and circumstances of the case appears credible.She has also stated that she tried to save her husband but accused caught hold her.She has further stated that when her finger was cut blood dropped on the place of incident.Next, she has stated that she did not feel finger was cut off.Again she has stated that finger was fallen there on the spot.She has also stated that as the spade was jabbed on neck, she fell down over her husband and injury was caused in her hand.It is the prosecution case that accused Sunder Lal was jabbing with spade and accused Ram Chander with spear and according to Smt. Ram Rati her forefinger was cut as the spade was jabbed on the neck she fell over her husband to save him.As per Ext.It is also mentioned in it that report was lodged on 22.11.1991 at 15:30 P.M. We have already discussed in preceding paras of the judgement with regard to F.I.R. being ante time and in para 23 of the judgement has found that F.I.R. is not anti-timed.The prosecution has produced the informant P.W.1 Shyam Bihari and defence was provided opportunity of cross-examination to this witness.In such circumstances, although scribe of the chik F.I.R. and G.D. has not been produced by the prosecution and defence had no opportunity to cross-examine the scribe of the chik F.I.R. and G.D. but as prosecution has produced informant P.W.1 Shyam Bihari, who orally lodged F.I.R. Ext.Ka-1 and to prove chik F.I.R. and G.D. prosecution has also produced P.W.6 Constable Narendra Pal Singh and no question with regard to registration of F.I.R. has been put to him.38. P.W.1 Shyam Bihari in cross-examination has stated that he was also residing along with his son, separate with his deceased brother.He has also a house in Sitarganj.His son Sohan Lal was residing with him in Sitarganj.He has stated that on the day of incident at about 11:00 A.M. Ram Bahadur and Sunder Lal came at his house to call deceased Beni Ram, at that time Sunder Lal had a spade.He has also stated that Sunder Lal asked from them to measure the field as decided yesterday on which he, deceased Beni Ram and his wife Smt. Ram Rati reached lease field.He and Beni Ram were bare hand and Smt. Ram Rati had a khurpi.They reached on the field at about 11:00 A.M. and he has narrated the story of the incident.In the spot map Ext.Ka-12, his presence has been also shown by mark 2 in a circle.From his cross-examination nothing has been extracted by defence from which his presence at the time of incident can be doubted.On going through his testimony, it is also clear that the defence has not tried to clarify from him with regard to opportunity of being present in the village where the incident took place.Apart from it, it is also notable that the witness Shyam Bihari has clearly stated that he was also residing along with his son, separate with the deceased brother.In such a situation, his presence at the time of incident appears natural also.P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati also has supported the presence of Shyam Bihari at the time of incident.In view of the above discussion, on the basis of statement of informant Shyam Bihari that he has also a house in Sitarganj and he was residing along with his son separate with the deceased, his presence on the spot can't be doubted.Accordingly, we find no substance in the contention of learned counsel for the appellants that presence of informant Shyam Bihari at the time of incident is doubtful.It is true that P.W.1 Shyam Bihari in his cross-examination has stated that he does not know what share and in which side the accused Sunder Lal had to get in the lease land but in cross-examination itself he has stated that in between field of Beni Ram and accused Sunder Lal field of Siya Ram, Damodar Lal, Ram Gopal and Pancham Rai are adjoining to each other.In cross-examination he has also stated that he did not go in the panchayat.It is case of prosecution that land was allotted to the deceased on lease and prosecution evidence in this regard is intact.Thus, in view of his statement that he did not go in the panchayat, on the basis of statement of informant Shyam Bihari that he does not know what share and which side accused Sunder Lal had to get, no any adverse inference against prosecution can be derived.40. P.W.1 Shyam Bihari has stated that after reaching the field accused assembled and grappled his brother and fallen down him.P.W.2 Smt. Ram Rati has stated that on reaching the field marking for partition were made, talks took place between them near about half an hour was spent in the field and when her husband sat to smoke chilam incident took place.P.W.5 Investigating Officer Gyan Singh in cross-examination has stated that he did not find chilam or spread tobacco on the place of incident.As per recovery memo Ext.Ka-13 a rope of mooz and jute, a spade, a log of wood and an old towel by which both legs of the deceased alleged to have been tied have been recovered by P.W.5 Gyan Singh Investigating Officer but chilam and tobacco were not recovered by him.If really it was a fact that deceased Beni Ram putting chilam in his mouth as tried to smoke accused persons caused the incident, then certainly chilam and tobacco should have been there and found by the I.O. but it was not so.Apart from it her statement itself appears inherently contradictory as she has stated that firstly Ram Bahadur fallen down the deceased, Ram Bahadur and Ram Shankar tied his legs, Ram Bharosey caught the hand, Sunder Lal cut neck by spade and Ram Chander inflicted spear injury in the stomach.In Ext.Ka-1 the first information report which has been made just after the incident, it is mentioned that when informant Shyam Bihari, deceased Beni Ram and Smt. Ram Rati reached the field accused Ram Chander, Ram Shankar and Ram Bharosey also met there and accused Sunder Lal, Ram Bahadur, Ram Chander Ram Shankar and Ram Bharosey fallen down his brother Beni Ram and tied legs of his brother Beni Ram, Ram Bahadur pressed legs of his brother, Ram Bharosey and Ram Shankar caught his both hand, Sunder Lal by spade and Ram Chander by spear started jabbing stating to kill him.Sunder Lal cut neck of his brother by spade and Ram Chander gave spear blow on stomach.This version has been supported by P.W.1 Shyam Bihari through his testimony also and from his cross-examination nothing has been extracted, so as to doubt his testimony.It appears that Smt. Ram Rati being a rustic and illiterate lady and her statement also has been recorded after a lapse of six years from the date of incident as held by Hon'ble Supreme Court in Prabhu Dayal v/s State of Rajasthan (2018) e SCC 517 has exaggerated the prosecution story with regard to digging of places for demarcation thereafter sitting the deceased on earth put chilam in his mouth and as he tried to smoke the incident was caused and as discussed in para 31 of the judgement in order to save deceased her forefinger was also not cut off but in material particulars of prosecution case, her testimony like allotment of land on lease to her husband, claim by accused Sunder Lal in the lease land, matter being decided by village head Ram Chander @ Munendra in the evening of the past night, coming of accused Sunder Lal to call the deceased, going on the lease land of deceased Beni R
