Ranjith Kumar vs The State Rep By on 18 November, 2019

6.1.After taking note of the celebrated judgment of the Apex Court in State of Andhra Pradesh Vs. Rayavarapu Punnayya and another ((1976) 4 Supreme Court Cases 382) as approved in the subsequent decision in Rampal Singh Vs. State of Uttar Pradesh ((2012) 8 Supreme Court Cases 289 dealing with the subtle difference between Sections 298 and 300 IPC, we accordingly hold that this case would come under the purview of Section 304(II) IPC. Thus, the facts governing would lead us to come to the conclusion that the appellant is to be convicted and sentenced for the offence under Section 304(II) IPC. Taking note of that fact that the appellant was only 21 years old at the relevant point of time and the case being based upon circumstantial evidence with no further evidence on motive or the strained relationship between the appellant and the deceased, we are inclined to modify the sentence to that of seven years rigorous imprisonment.

Vellaiyan @ Marimuthu vs State on 31 August, 2019

17.It is true that Section 29 incorporates a mandatory presumption. It directs that the court shall presume that the person prosecuted for committing or abetting or attempting http://www.judis.nic.in13 CRL.A.No.709 of 2015 to commit any offence under Section 3, 5, 7 and 9 of the Act has committed or abetted or attempted to commit the offence, as the case may be, unless the contrary is proved. While the court is obliged to raise such a presumption, the question arises at what stage the presumption will kick in. Of course, a literal application of Section 29 may lead the court to raise such presumption the moment the charge is framed against the accused. I am afraid that the section cannot be viewed in that fashion. Presumption of innocence and right to fair trial are the essence of our jurisprudence and are accepted as rights of the accused (Rampal Singh vs State Of U.P, (2012) 8 SCC 289). They cannot be given a go-bye. In fact, one Special Judge entertained a doubt and even made a reference under Section 395 of Cr.Pc for declaring Section 29 of the POCSO Act, 2012 as unconstitutional. But then, the Hon'ble Division Bench of the Gauhati High Court answered the reference in negative and directed the Special Judge to pronounce judgment in accordance with the existing provisions of the Act of 2012 in the judgment reported in 2017 Crl.LJ 1615 (In Re: Secretary to the Government of India and Ors). The Hon'ble Division Bench also observed http://www.judis.nic.in14 CRL.A.No.709 of 2015 that the constitutional validity of Section 29 of the POCSO Act was not challenged by the accused before the High Court.
