Sri Saifulla vs State Of Karnataka on 21 April, 2010

16. More over connecting evidence is not placed on record to complete chain of events. No corroborating evidence in the form of DD entries vide which PWs have left the police station for patrolling duty is proved on record. In my opinion the prosecution was under an obligation to prove on record, the DD entries vide which the above said police officials had left the PS to prove the availability of the said witness at the place of apprehension of the accused. Thus, the evidence coming up on record does not inspire confidence of the court. As held in Saifulla Vs. State 1998 (1) CCC 497 (Delhi) and Abdul Gaffar Vs. State 1996 JCC 4097 (Delhi) in such circumstances, benefit of doubt is to be given to the accused.
