STATE OF HARYANA vs RAJINDER SINGH

The Supreme Court addressed the acquittal of the respondent under Sections 302/34 IPC and 498-A IPC by the High Court, emphasizing that the extra-judicial confession was not credible due to the presence of multiple witnesses. The Court noted that for a confession to be admissible, it must be both true and voluntary, which was not established in this case. Furthermore, the Court held that the charge under Section 304-B IPC could not be examined as the State did not appeal against the acquittal, leading to the dismissal of the appeal by the State.
