IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT PATNA G. APP. (DB) No.10 of 2009 STATE OF BIHAR Versus RAKESH RANJAN GOPE @ RAJU For the appellant: Mr. Dilip Kumar Sinha ----------- 2. 28.8.2009 Heard learned counsel for the appellant State. This Govt.Appeal has been preferred against the judgment and order of acquittal dated 23.5.2009 passed by the Additional Sessions Judge, Fast Track Court IV, Munger in Sessions Trial No. 1083 of 2008 acquitting the sole respondent of the charge under Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code. Learned counsel for the appellant has taken us to the various paragraphs of the judgment in an effort to persuade us that the chain of circumstances were complete pointing to the guilt of the accused. Circumstantial evidence is a weak evidence. We have carefully gone through the judgment under appeal. We do not find any infirmity in the order of acquittal passed upon a thorough consideration of the chain of circumstances which were laid to the trial court on the 2 allegation of the sole respondent. We are not persuaded to take any different view also. The prayer for leave is refused and this appeal is dismissed. Kanth (Navin Sinha, J.) ( Dharnidhar Jha, J.)
