Summary of Crl.A. No. 75/2001 - Balwinder Singh v. State of Punjab The Supreme Court set aside Balwinder Singh's conviction under TADA Section 5, Arms Act Section 25, and Explosives Act Section 5 (5-year imprisonment + Rs. 1000 fine) due to trial deficiencies: a key witness's (Babu Ram) unsigned deposition and unproven defence affidavits. The Court remitted the case to trial court for partial retrial—recalling only Babu Ram for re-examination while preserving other evidence—followed by questions under CrPC Section 313 and defence evidence. The appellant remains in judicial custody but may apply for bail to the trial court independently. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
