IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Crl. Misc. App. No. 542-MA of 2011 (O&M) Date of decision : 06.09.2011 Ajay Kumar ....Applicant Versus State of Haryana and others ...Respondents CORAM : HON'BLE MR.JUSTICE MAHESH GROVER Present: Mr. Sandeep Goyal, Advocate for the applicant MAHESH GROVER, J. The instant application has been filed seeking grant of leave to appeal appeal against the order dated 18.1.2011 awarding acquittal to the respondent-accused persons, who faced proceedings for having committed an offence under Section 306 of the Indian Penal Code. The trial Court while awarding an acquittal noticed that the complainant Banarsi Dass who was examined as PW-1 and Kasturi Lal who was examined as PW-2 and was brother-in-law of the complainant, being material witnesses did not support the case of the prosecution. The Court was justified in acquitting the respondent- accused when confronted with the situation where the complainant himself did not support the prosecution case. No infirmity can be said to have been committed by learned trial Court. In view of the aforesaid, consequently the application seeking leave to appeal is declined on merits as also on the ground that it has been submitted after the expiry of limitation. Hence, dismissed. (MAHESH GROVER) 06.09.2011 JUDGE reena
