Rights Of Victim & Society At Large Not Subservient To Rights Of Accused
07 Nov 2019 11:25 pm
The Supreme Court, observed that the rights of the victim and the society at large cannot be made subservient to the rights of an accused.
The bench of Justice Navin Sinha and Justice BR Gavai was addressing the contention raised on behalf of the accused that proper opportunity to defend was denied under Section 313 of the Code of Criminal Procedure as the incriminating questions put to them were extremely casual and perfunctory in barely two pages. It was contended that all relevant questions with regard to the accusations were not put to the accused.
In Fainul Khan vs. State of Jharkhand, the court noted that Section 313, Cr.P.C. incorporates the principle of audi alteram partem and provides an opportunity to the accused for his defence by making him aware fully of the prosecution allegations against him and to answer the same in support of his innocence. The bench reiterated that the challenge to the conviction based on non-compliance of Section 313 CrPC cannot be entertained unless the accused demonstrate that the prejudice has been caused to them.
