DATED : 3rd FEBRUARY, 2015 Order :- 1.

Heard learned counsel for the applicant. Perused judgment of the trial Court.

2 Cri.A.5213.13 2.

Learned counsel for the applicant refers to evidence of witnesses examined before trial court. Learned counsel for applicant pointed out that the trial court has not properly appreciated the evidence and committed an error in acquitting the accused persons. She further pointed out the short reasonings recorded by the trial court in paragraph No. 7 of the judgment that P.W.3 stated that he did not know what happened before he got up and so his evidence was hearsay. According to her, if evidence is read, it shows that, in fact, the witness was injured in the incident and appreciation of the evidence by the trial court is erroneous. She submits that complainant had submitted medical certificates, but there were no medical certificates to show that injuries were sustained by the accused. According to her, still the Magistrate concluded that there was quarrel and it was a case of free fight.
