The accused is facing trial for the offences punishable under sections 379 and 427 of the Indian Penal Code. -- 1 of 3 -- - 2 - C. C. No. 3458 / PW / 2018. 2 In order to prove the guilt of the accused, prosecution has examined only one witness. The prosecution has filed a report at Exh.4 mentioning therein that informant of this case is untraceable. According the prosecution has examined its Investigating Officer in the form of available witness. The evidence of PW1 Suryamohan Narayanrao Bolamwad at Exh.5 came to be recorded. As no incriminating evidence has come on record against the accused, hence, his statement under section 313 of the Code of Criminal Procedure is dispensed with. I have heard Mrs. Geeta Godambe, the Ld. In-charge APP for the State and Shri Nasir Patel Ld. Advocate for the accused at length. I have perused the evidence on record very minutely and carefully. 3 In so far as evidence on record is concerned, PW1 Suryamohan Narayanrao Bolamwad is the Investigating Officer of this case. He has formally adduced his part of investigation. Noticeably, it is the case of prosecution that a bag consists of various documents came to be stolen from the parked motorcar. Significantly, during the investigation nothing came to be seized from the possession of accused, therefore, his role cannot be attributed for the alleged crime. In absence of recovery of any stolen property the principle of possession as sine-quo-non for alleged offence cannot be applied to accused. Hence, I am satisfied to extend the benefit of doubt to accused through following order - ………. 3 -- 2 of 3 -- - 3 - C. C. No. 3458 / PW / 2018.
