(2.) Shri K.C.Saxena, Addl. Government Advocate argued the appeal specifically raising the submission that the acquittal of the accused persons is not justified at all. From the evidence on record, the trial Court committed a manifest error in not placing reliance on the evidence of the prosecution which proved the prosecution case against the accused persons beyond reasonable doubt. The occular testimony of the witnesses is in no way contradict the medical evidence. The submissions of the learned A.G.A.necessitated him to place the entire evidence before the Court.
