Rape Case

Code of Criminal Procedure (V of 1898) 

Section 154

In facts, the story of rape itself gives rise to a grave suspicion implicating the accused; as such it will be fully within the domain of the appellate court to acquit the accused. The reason of delay in lodging FIR even after the release of the victim from the clutch of the accused has not been properly described; so it is very difficult to consider the evidence of prosecutrix. [74 DLR (AD) 28]

It is admitted that at the time of occurrence the appellant did not raise any alarm and did not inform the informant of the incident. It is also admitted that the appellant was taking the deceased to the house of informant and the deceased was in custody of the appellant.  [74 DLR (AD) 61]

The principle of circumstantial evidence to prove the guilt of an accused is that the prosecution has to prove the circumstantial evidence beyond reasonable doubt and the chain of circumstances should be cogent and consistent showing that the accused is compatible with the circumstances.  [74 DLR (AD) 62]

In a case based on circumstantial evidence, before any hypothesis of guilt can be drawn on the basis of circumstances, the legal requirement is that the circumstances themselves have to be proved like any other fact beyond reasonable doubt.    [74 DLR (AD) 62]

The length of period spent by a convict in the condemned cell is not necessarily a ground for commutation of the sentence of death. However, where the period spent in the condemned cell is not due to any fault of the convict and where the period spent there is inordinately long, it may be considered as an extenuating ground sufficient for commutation of sentence of death. [74 DLR (AD) 63]
