Court: Allahabad

Decided on: May-15-1951

Reported in: AIR1952All85

ORDER1. One Govind Singh was murdered under circumstances mentioned in the judgment of the learned Ses. J. There was an appeal in this Court & there was a difference of opinion between the two learned Judges constituting the Bench. The case was then referred to a third learned Judge &, on the return of the finding, there was again a difference of opinion as to the sentence. The case had to go back again to the same learned Judge who was of the opinion that the opposite party should be convicted under S. 323, Penal Code, & given the maximum punishment of one year's rigorous imprisonment. It is against this order that the father of Govind Singh has made this application for leave to appeal to the Supreme Court.2. In our view, it is not open to a third party, even if he be the father of the deceased, to move an application for leave to appeal to the Supreme Court.
