Summary of Crl.A. No. 000281/2000 The Supreme Court dismissed both appeals challenging the High Court's acquittal order dated 1.11.1999 in a double homicide case. The Court found the High Court's evidence appreciation justified, noting critical prosecution gaps: the alleged eyewitness (PW.1) was 100-125 yards away, no gun was recovered from the accused, and forensic evidence showed five bullets from five different firearms—contradicting the prosecution's narrative of a single shooter. The Court upheld the acquittal and discharged the accused's bail bonds on 26.09.2006. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
