Reverting to the facts of the present case in light of the principles of law laid down by their Lordships of the Supreme Court in the aforesaid cases including Sahadevan (supra), it is quite vivid that date of offence is 27/07/2013 and extra-judicial confession is said to have been made by the accused to Manohar Mahar (P.W.-3), Vikky Yadav (P.W.-4) and Raju Yadav (P.W.-6) on 06/08/2013. Village Kotwar Manohar Mahar (P.W.-3) has clearly stated before the Court that immediately after the incident, accused Geeta Yadav had gone to her parents' house and she was not present in the funeral of her mother-in-law and thereafter, her parents came and left her with her husband. Pursuant thereof, on 15-16/08/2013, accused Geeta Yadav went missing and did not come back to her house, then her husband Vikky Yadav (P.W.-4) and her brother Raju Yadav (P.W.-6) traced her and anyhow she was brought back to her house and on being enquired as to where she had gone, she gave no reply, however, all of a sudden, she made a statement that on the date of the incident, she had poured kerosene oil over the deceased and set her ablaze. Thereafter, she was taken to the Police Station and she was enquired by the Police and at that time, Vikky Yadav (P.W.-4) and Raju Yadav (P.W.-6) were also present, however, both have been examined before the Court and they have not supported the case of the prosecution and they have not been declared hostile also.
