2023, passed by learned Additional Sessions Judge, Thane in Sessions Case No. 495 of 2015 alongwith other co-accused, has been convicted and sentenced as under:-

¶22

for the offence punishable under Section 302 read with section 34 of the Indian Penal Code, to suffer rigorous imprisonment for life and to pay fine of Rs. 5,000/- in default, to suffer simple imprisonment for three months.

¶23

Perused the papers. Prosecution case rests on circumstantial evidence. As far as motive is concerned it is the prosecution case, that the applicant alongwith another co-accused committed the murder of Kartik Kumar Jaiswal on 7^th July 2015. In order to prove motive, the prosecution examined PW-7-Maruti Lakdaji Mange. We have perused the evidence of the said witness i.e. Maruti Mange and having perused the same, we do not find any material in his evidence, to infer that the applicant had strong motive to kill Kartik Jaiswal. As far as recovery of blood stained iron sickle, is concerned, it appears that the said weapon was recovered from accused no.2 and not from the applicant. As far
