Statement of complainant 'M' inspires confidence and is corroborated by the surrounding circumstances and other evidence on record. Non production of named material witnesses servant Raju and his wife alleged by defence to be present at the scene of crime leads to making out case for invocation of Illustration (g) of Section 114 of The Indian Evidence Act, as if servant Raju and his wife were examined in defence on production, they would likely not have supported the case of defence.

In order to have the advantage of the status quo order declared by the apex court in P.M.A. Metropolitan V. Moran Mar Marthoma {AIR 1996 SC 3121} certain conditions had to be satisfied. The Patriarch group was unable to comply with the condition they were left without a metropolitan. Though an attempt was made to install a :3: R.P.No. 269 of 20011 Metropolitan who had also attempted to take over the administration of the Patriarch group of the church in question, the said attempt failed. That resulted in open war between the two groups resulting in law and order problem, compelling the intervention of the executive Magistrate. Proceedings under the Criminal Procedure Code were initiated and the church was taken over. The plaintiff in the suit, who is also the petitioner in I.A.2119/2000 was allowed to continue as the Asst. Vicar. Two other persons were kept out of the church. The said understanding was entered into on 20.01.1998.

Mathews Mar Koorilos (Dead) And Anr. ... vs M. Pappy (Dead) And Anr. Etc. on 28 August, 2018

228.18. The faith of Church is unnecessarily sought to be divided vis-à-vis the office of Catholicos and the Patriarch as the common faith of the Church is in Jesus Christ. In fact an effort is being made to take over the management and other powers by raising such disputes as to supremacy of Patriarch or Catholicos to gain control of temporal matters under the garb of spirituality. There is no good or genuine cause for disputes which have been raised. 228.19. The authority of Patriarch had never extended to the government of temporalities of the Churches. By questioning the action of the Patriarch and his undue interference in the administration of Churches in violation of the Most Rev. P.M.A. Metropolitan v. Moran Mar Marthoma 1995 Supp (4) 286, it cannot be said that the Catholicos faction is guilty of repudiating the spiritual supremacy of the Patriarch. The Patriarch faction is to be 14 blamed for the situation which has been created post 1995 judgment4. The property of the Church is to be managed as per the 1934 Constitution. The judgment of 1995 4 has not been respected by the Patriarch faction which was binding on all concerned. Filing of writ petitions in the High Court by the Catholicos faction was to deter the Patriarch/his representatives to appoint the Vicar, etc. in violation of the 1995 judgment4 of this Court.
