Antar Singh vs State Of Madhya Pradesh on 14 September, 1978

It has been settled by the Hon'ble Apex Court that presumption of innocence of the accused persons are further reinforced by their acquittal by the Trial Court and the view of the Trial Judge as to the credibility of the witnesses must be given proper weight and consideration, there must be compelling and substantial reason for the Higher Court to come to a conclusion different from that of a Trial Judge. Further In Antar Singh Vs. State of Madhya Pradesh; AIR 1979 SC 1188 it has been held that where two views of the evidence are reasonably possible, and the Trial Court has opted for one favouring acquittal, the High Court should not disturb the same merely on the ground that, if it were in the position of the Trial Court, it would have taken the alternative view and convicted the accused accordingly.
