casestatus.in Summary

Summary of State of Rajasthan v. Hukma Ram (Crl.A. No. 311/2000) The Supreme Court dismissed the State of Rajasthan's appeal on October 11, 2006, upholding the High Court's acquittal of Hukma Ram. Although the Trial and Appellate Courts had convicted Ram under IPC Sections 279, 337, and 304A and sentenced him to two years rigorous imprisonment with a Rs. 1,000 fine, the Court found no justification to interfere with the acquittal. The accident resulted from a vehicle axle breaking due to road conditions (steep terrain with a sudden 1-1/2 feet depression) rather than rash or negligent driving, and the vehicle's speed was not excessive.
