RAWAT RAM vs RAJU SINGH .

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's acquittal of the accused in a murder case under Sections 302 and 149 IPC, emphasizing the lack of credible evidence. The Court noted that the FIR was lodged 36 to 48 hours post-incident, raising doubts about its authenticity, and that the sole eyewitness, P.W. 7, had her statement recorded days later, undermining her reliability. The Court concluded that the prosecution failed to establish a strong case against the accused, affirming the High Court's judgment.
