Mahabir Prasad Verma vs Dr. Surinder Kaur on 7 April, 1982

6. Ram Lal (PW1) had deposed that, on 16th July, 1994, he and his daughter had received ransom call demanding Rs.20,00,000/-, for the release of Sukh Dayal. He searched for his brother Sukh Dayal (PW2) but without success. Ultimately he filed a complaint with police (Ex. PW1/A), in the early Crl.A.853/2012 Page 2 of 8 morning of 17th July, 1994. He had also handed over 7 audio cassettes (Ex. PW1/1 to PW1/7) recording of conversation in which demand of ransom was raised. He also visited police station on 20th July, 1994. At this stage, we may notice that in the appeals preferred by Amar Mishra, Ravi, Rajender and Mukesh, a Division Bench of this Court after examining the law and legal position in Mahavir Prasad Verma v. Surinder Kaur, AIR 1982 SC 1043, R.M. Malkani v. State of Maharashtra, AIR 1973 SC 157, Ziyauddin Burhanuddin Bukhari v. Brijmohan Ramdass Mehra, AIR 1975 SC 1788 and Ram Singh vs. Col. Ram Singh AIR 1986 SC 3, has observed and held that the pre-conditions essential for tape recordings to be admissible as evidence, were not satisfied. Respectfully following the said judgment, we are not inclined to take into account the tape recordings of the conversations. However, this does not disturb or affect the statement made by PW-1 regarding the ransom calls, which were received, and kidnapping of Sukh Dayal (PW2).
