ORDERPatterson, J.1. The petitioners in this case have obtained a decree for specific performance against the opposite party. By that decree it was in effect ordered that on the petitioners depositing a sum of Rs. 235 in Court within 15 days of the date of the decree the opposite party should execute and register a kobala in their favour in respect of the land in suit and that in the event of the opposite party failing to do so the petitioners would be entitled to have a kobala executed and registered through the Court.

Rankin, C.J.1. In this case the appellant before us is a woman named Rajeswari Debi. She was put on her trial before the learned Sessions Judge of Burdwan and a jury upon a charge of murder under Section 302 and another separate charge of abetment of murder under Section 302 read with Section 109, I.P.C. The charges were in respect of the death of a woman called Lilabati who was found with her head almost severed from her body on her bed in her own house on the morning of 22nd January 1931.

It further appears that Lilabati had a small child of about 15 or 18 months who slept with her.
