Case History
Summary: Crl.A. No. 001183/2001 — Madho Singh v. State of Rajasthan Outcome: The Supreme Court allowed the appeal and acquitted Madho Singh and other appellants, setting aside the High Court's judgment. The appellants were convicted by the Sessions Court for murder (Section 302/34 IPC) and sentenced to life imprisonment with fines. The Court found insufficient evidence of homicidal death—medical evidence indicated injuries could result from accident; key prosecution witnesses turned hostile; the place of occurrence was not proved; and conviction rested solely on "last seen" theory without motive. The appellants were set free immediately unless required in other cases. Date: September 26, 2002 This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
