drawn by the Police. PW-3 admitted that he had not shown his shop to the Police. Later, he stated that he did not see the incident from his shop. Therefore, PW-3's evidence is full of material omissions and contradictions. It is very difficult to believe PW-3's testimony. 14. Therefore, it follows that the prosecution has not proved the guilt of the accused. Therefore, the Appeals must succeed. We set CRIMINAL APPEAL NO. 467/2024 8aside the impugned judgments dated 26th August 2022 and 6th December 2007 passed by the High Court and the Trial Court. We set aside the conviction and sentence of the appellants. 15. The Appeals are allowed accordingly. 16. The appellant in Criminal Appeal No.467/2024 is on bail. His bail bonds stand cancelled. As far as the appellants (accused nos.2 to 6) in Criminal Appeal No.468/2024 are concerned, we direct that they shall be immediately set at liberty. ...................J.
