Chain of evidence complete: HC in Bhanu Kiran case
Hyderabad: A two-judge panel of the Telangana High Court held that while convicting a person “the circumstances should be such that they exclude every possible hypothesis except the one to be proved. It has been held that there must be a chain of evidence so complete as not to leave any reasonable ground for the conclusion consistent with the innocence of the accused and must show that in all human probabilities, the act must have been done by the accused.” Applying the theory, the panel refused to set aside the life imprisonment awarded to Malisetty Bhanu Kiran in the murder of Gangula Suryanarayana Reddy, alias Suri. The panel of Justice K. Lakshman and Justice Sree Sudha affirmed the sentence of the first additional metropolitan court and dismissed the appeal filed by Kiran. On consideration of the legal and acceptable evidence, the trial court gave a finding that the prosecution has proved the motive beyond reasonable doubt, and there is no error in it.” The panel also accepted the last-seen theory stated by the prosecution. HC: Consider BRS plea for gag order Justice C.V. Bhaskar Reddy of the Telangana High Court on Friday directed the Union ministry of information and telecommunication to consider as expeditiously as it can the representation of BRS party seeking a gag order on allegations and discussions on social media and electronic media on the phone-tapping incident.
