GOPAL MAHATHA Vs. STATE OF BIHAR

JUDGEMENT

(1.) AT the outset it is submitted by Mr. Sahani that the revision has abated against the petitioner No. 1 Gopal Mahatha as he has already died in the year 2002. Accordingly this revision is held to have been abated against the petitioner No. 1 Gopal Mahatha.

(2.) THIS revision application is directed against the judgment dated 9th April, 1996, passed by the learned Sessions Judge, Bokaro at Chas, in Criminal Appeal No. 84 of 1995, whereby and whereunder, the appeal preferred by the petitioners against the judgment of the trial Court dated 31st July, 1995, passed by the learned 1st Assistant Sessions Judge, Bokaro at Chas, in Sessions Trial No. 186 of 1988, convicting the accused persons for the offence under Section 376, IPC and sentencing them to undergo RI for five years each has been dismissed.

(3.) ALTOGETHER six witness were examined by the prosecution including the Doctor (PW 4) who had medically examined the victim. From the impugned judgment of the trial Court as well as the appellate Court I find that both the Courts below have elaborately discussed and considered oral as well as documentary evidences, adduced on behalf of the prosecution and then has come to the finding that the charges against the accused were proved beyond all reasonable doubts.
