VIJENDER SINGH vs STATE OF HARYANA — Crl.A. No. 633/2006

Summary: Crl.A. No. 633/2006 – Vijender Singh v. State of Haryana Outcome: The Supreme Court allowed the appeal on November 25, 2010, setting aside the convictions of both Vijender Singh and co-accused Prashant Kumar under Section 302 read with Section 34 IPC (murder). The Court found the prosecution's circumstantial evidence unreliable, particularly discrediting the testimonies of key witnesses PW-3 (chance witness Sultan Singh) and PW-4 (deceased's brother Vijender Singh), noting no direct evidence of the murder was presented. Directions: Vijender Singh's bail bonds were discharged; Prashant Kumar was to be released forthwith from jail if not required in any other case.
