10. With the consent of the accused counsel CW-4 to 6 are given up. On the other hand the learned APP has not objected the consent given by the accused counsel.
11. The learned Sr.APP argued that accident was occurred only due to the fault of the accused that he drove the vehicle in a rash and negligent manner. In that regard, PW-1 who is none other than the injured has supported the prosecution case.

Therefore he prays for convict the accused for the said offences.

12. In a road traffic accident cases first the prosecution has to prove the rash and negligent driving of the accused . In order to prove this fact the case in hand the prosecution fully depend upon the evidence of PW-1 who is none other than the injured/complainant of this case who deposed about the accident. On the other hand the accused has not disputed the fact that he was the rider of the said vehicle on the day of the accident. Here itself it is pertinent to note that while recording 313 statement the accused has not offered any explanation and PW.-1 has not been cross examined. As such it can be safely said that accident does not dispute the fact that the accident had occurred due to his rash and negligent driving. In view of the discussion made supra, this court considered view that the prosecution has proved beyond all 4 C.C.No.38198/2019

2)To What Order?

7. My findings on the above points are as under:

           Point No.1 :      In the Affirmative.
           Point No.2 :      As per final order for the
                                  following:


                             REASONS

  8. Point No.1:-         In order to prove the allegations, the

prosecution has examined CW-1 is examined as PW.-1.

PW.-1 further stated that due to impact, he fell down and he sustained grievous injuries on his right knee and caused damage to Motorcycle .Public took him to Manipal hospital . He gave complaint as per Ex.P1 and he identified the accused and due to accused fault accident occurred.

9. Among the witnesses examined by the prosecution, CW-1 /PW.-1 is the injured/complainant. 3 C.C.No.38198/2019 framed, read over and explained to the accused. Accused plead not guilty and claimed to be tried.

4. In support of the prosecution case, out of 07 witnesses, the prosecution has examined one witness as PW.1 and got marked the documents at Ex.P.1 to Ex.P.7. Cws.4 to 6 given up by the prosecution. In spite of issue of process against CWs.-2,3 & 7, the concerned police failed to secure their presence, hence, by rejecting the prayer of Sr.APP, CWs.-2,3 & 7 are dropped. The statement of the accused U/Sec. 313 of Cr.P.C. is recorded. The accused denied the incriminating evidence read over to him. There is no defence evidence.

5. Heard the arguments.

6. The points that arise for my consideration are as follows:
