Section 6(4) Sentence of death commuted to life imprisonment The High Court Division committed serious error of law in discarding the confessional statement and the finding that the confessional statement of the condemned prisoner is neither voluntary nor true and it is liable to be rejected as a whole' is also erroneous and as such the order of acquittal of the accused respondent herein is thus also erroneous and illegal. This criminal appeal is allowed. But the sentence of death passed by the trial Court is commuted to life imprisonment relying on the principle laid down in BLAST Vs. Bangladesh (67 DLR(AD)185).
