Meharban And Others vs State Of Madhya Pradesh on 27 September, 1996

Now, the question arises whether Pardeep Singh can be disbelieved solely for the reason that in his statement to the police, he had mentioned about only one shot having been fired at Raghbir Singh, whereas in the statement in the Court he had stated that 2-3 shots had been fired. The answer has to be in negative. Though Pardeep Singh has made improvement in that regard, but those are not of such type showing that he is an introduced witness and should not be relied upon. While saying so, we find support of various judgments of the Hon'ble Apex Court in that regard i.e. Meharban and others vs. State of M.P. AIR 1997 SC 1528, wherein it was observed that merely because of some exaggerations, improvements and discrepancies in the statements of witnesses, the prosecution case will not be damaged.
