Nand Kishore Vishwanath Neware Vs. State of Maharashtra

Court: Mumbai

Decided on: Feb-26-1993

Reported in: II(1993)DMC195

A.A. Desai, J.1. The finding of conviction for the offences punishable under Sections 498A and 306 of Indian Penal Code impugned in this appeal is based on the dying declaration of Panchfula, who succumbed to burn injuries on 25.5,1988. Shri Lambat, the learned Counsel appearing for appellant-accused, has assailed the finding of conviction mainly on the ground that the dying declaration of Panchfula does not bring out any ingredient of abetment so as to hold that appellant-accused, by his cruel treatment, instigated or forced his wife, Panchfula, to bring an end to her life. On the other hand, Shri Kukde, the learned Additional Public Prosecutor appearing for the State, tried to support the finding of conviction. Considering the rival claims, we propose to examine the text of prosecution claim.2. Undisputedly, the marriage between the parties took place in 1981. Out of wedlock, they had three children. The claim of prosecution is that on 5.5.1988. Panchfula, wife of appellant-accused, ...
