Maranadu & Anr vs State By Inspector Of Police, T.N on 15 September, 2008
"14. Merely because the eye-witnesses are family
members their evidence cannot per se be discarded. When
there is allegation of interestedness, the same has to be
established. Mere statement that being relatives of the
deceased they are likely to falsely implicate the accused
cannot be a ground to discard the evidence which is
otherwise cogent and credible. Relationship is not a factor to
affect credibility of a witness. It is more often than not that a
relation would not conceal actual culprit and make
allegations against an innocent person. Foundation has to be
laid if plea of false implication is made [See : Maranadu and
Anr. Vs. State by Inspector of Police, Tamil Nadu (2008) 16
SCC 529]."

show that in those cases the Hon'ble Supreme Court had found that
the accused persons had relied upon the judgment in support of
their case of private defence.
