That The Accident Actually Took Place vs State on 28 May, 2015

20. In the case at hand, the star witness of the prosecution was PW-1 who has deposed that one tempo was being driven in a rash and negligent driving and had hit one person. He made call on 100 number and police had come to the spot. This witness has not deposed anything about the speed of the tempo or the manner in which the tempo was being driven. Merely making a bald statement that the accused was driving the vehicle in rash and negligent manner is not sufficient to prove the rashness / negligence on part of the accused. Moreover there are no photographs of the spot on the judicial record. The reason for non-filing of the photographs is known best to the IO who has not been examined. The site plan is also merely a perfunctory one and nothing material could be inferred from it. The mechanical inspection report is also of no State v. Vishnu Dutt Joshi U/s 279/304A IPC 8/9 FIR No. 347/05 PS Paschim Vihar use to the prosecution as no damage was found on the vehicle as no collision with another object had taken place.

Bagh Singh vs State And Ors on 10 September, 2013

The Supreme Court in State of Rajasthan Vs. Shera Ram alias Vishnu Dutta (2012) 1 SCC 602, held that there is no documentary or oral evidence to prove the fact that the injuries caused by the respondent to the deceased were sufficient in the ordinary course of nature to cause death. This, however, cannot be stated as an absolute proposition of law and the question whether the particular injury was sufficient in the ordinary course of nature to cause death or not, is a question of fact, which will have to be determined in light of the facts, circumstances and evidence produced in a given case. There could be cases where injuries caused upon the body of the deceased per se can irresistibly lead to the conclusion that the injuries were sufficient to cause death in the ordinary course of nature, while there may be other cases.
