Ram Ishwar Rai vs The State Of Bihar on 10 February, 2014

22. This Court in Ashok Kumar v. State of Haryana (2003) 2 SCC 143 had occasion to dwell on Explanation 1 to Section 376(2)(g) IPC while examining whether the appellant Ashok Kumar could be convicted under the same because at the crucial time, he happened to be in the house of the co-accused Anil Kumar in whose case the judgment of conviction under Section 376(2)(g) had attained finality. The Court observed that the prosecution must adduce evidence to show that more than one accused has acted in concert and in such an event, if rape had been committed by even one of the accused all will be guilty irrespective of the fact that she has not been raped by all of them. Therefore, it may not be necessary for the prosecution to adduce evidence of a completed act of rape by each one of the accused. The provision embodies a principle of joint liability and essence of that liability is in existence of common intention. That common intention presupposes prior concert as there must be meeting of minds, which may be determined from the 25 conduct of the offenders which is revealed during the course of action."
