State Of Bihar, Etc vs Kapil Singh, Etc on 18 April, 1968

10 Furthermore, in the present case, material witnesses have not been examined despite ample opportunities having been granted to the Case No. 81/2/00 State Vs. Kapil Etc. 7/9 Prosecution and in such eventuality, it is not clear as to whether the proceedings, as alleged, have ever been conducted or not. In such circumstances, investigation carried out comes under a big question. 11 So far as the testimonies of other witnesses i.e., PW2 to PW6 are concerned, the same are formal in nature as their role came into picture after the incident. Furthermore, they have shown several other discrepancies and contradictions in the case of the prosecution and have raised further doubt regarding correctness of the same. Testimonies of different witnesses are not complete harmony with each other and there are several diversions amongst them. It is clear from the evidence of the different witnesses that a proper chain of incidents has not been maintained in a reliable manner qua material aspects of the case property and it creates doubts as to whether these witnesses were present on the spot or not.

The State Of Rajasthan vs Shri Teja Singh & Ors on 7 February, 2001

9 It is clear that there is total lack of inclusion of any public or any independent witnesses at the time of raid, recovery of alleged snatched gold chain and investigation carried out by the police. Even the complainant was overlooked in this regard. She was only called at the time of identification of the case property/ snatched gold chain. Clearly no serious efforts have been made to do so. Although, non­ inclusion of independent witnesses is not always fatal to the prosecution but in the facts and circumstances of the given case, the necessity of such impartial witnesses cannot be denied and non­ inclusion of such witnesses has raised further doubt regarding correctness/ genuineness of the case of the prosecution. As held in the State of Rajasthan Vs. Teja Singh 2001 (II) AD (SC) 125, that:­ "The failure of the prosecution to examine independent witnesses though available is fatal for their case."
