DADUA Vs. STATE

JUDGEMENT

(1.) THIS is an appeal from the judgment and order of Sri R. B. Srivastava, Additional Sessions Judge, Allahabad by which he convicted appellants Dadua, Bachaiya, Ram Nath, Dukhi and Ram Autar under Section 395 IPC and appellants Kripal and Gajwa under Section 395/397 IPC and sentenced the former to seven years' RI each and the latter to eight years' RI each.

(2.) BEFORE I dwell on the facts of the case I may mention at this very place that three of the appellants, namely, Dadua, Bachaiya and Gajwa have died. Their appeal, therefore, abates.

(3.) APPELLANTS Dukhi and Ram Autar were put up for identification in Naini Central Jail on 7-1 - 1972. Their test identification parades were conducted by Sri Shitla Prasad, Magistrate First Class.
