Judgment text excerpt
The appellants challenged their conviction for the disappearance of a relative, Chander Has, following a property dispute. The prosecution alleged that the appellants abducted the deceased from his home, after which he was never seen alive. This appeal examines the evidence regarding the abduction and the subsequent failure to locate the body, assessing whether the presumption of death and circumstantial evidence were sufficient for conviction.
