Case Summary: State of U.P. v. Ram Saran (Crl.A. No. 26-27/1999) The Supreme Court dismissed the State of U.P.'s appeal against the High Court's acquittal of Ram Saran, who was charged with murdering his wife Shivlali in May 1990. Although medical evidence proved death by strangulation and the trial court convicted him and imposed death sentence, the Supreme Court found insufficient evidence linking the accused to the crime—his relatives did not support the prosecution, and only the deceased's mother (who wasn't a witness) testified based on suspicion and hearsay. The Court upheld the High Court's finding that circumstances were not conclusively proven. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
