Hon'ble Shri Justice Manindra Mohan Shrivastava Hon'ble Smt. Justice Vimla Singh Kapoor, Order on Board by Justice Manindra Mohan Shrivastava, J. 08.02.2021 Heard on prayer for condonation of delay in filing appeal as also prayer for grant of leave to appeal.

Even if we are inclined to condone the delay, in our opinion, there is no merit in this application because the acquittal is outcome of all the prosecution witnesses turning hostile and not supporting the case of the prosecution. Accordingly, application is rejected. Sd/- Sd/- (Manindra Mohan Shrivastava) (Vimla Singh Kapoor) Judge Judge Ajay
