12. According to the prosecution, A1 to A3 had surrendered before the police and then they produced M.O.1 chopper and M.O.2 reaper before the police. However, PW6, Criminal Appeal No.410 of 2014 12 2025:KER:6735 attestor to Ext.P4 seizure mahazar deposed that PW1 and one Sobin were present in the police station and that it was they who had produced the chopper and reaper before the police, at which time the accused persons were not present. He identified M.O.1 and M.O.2. which he had seen at the police station. The evidence regarding the seizure of M.O.1 and M.O.2 is certainly not satisfactory.
