Live Law  

Rejecting the argument regarding credibility of statements given by two police officials for being 'stock witnesses' in 12 other similar cases, a Delhi Court has framed charges against 9 men in connection with a North East Delhi riots case. The Court rejected the argument put forth on behalf of the accused persons that the statements of the two police officials could not be considered for the reason that were been cited as witnesses in 12 riot related cases. It was also observed that the narration of the incident given by the two police officials nowhere reflected that they were not present at the spot of incident or were planted or stock witnesses. It is, thus, held that the charges u/s 147/ 148/ 436/ 454/ 392/452/ 427/ 506 IPC r/w Section 149 IPC are liable to framed against all the accused," the Court said.
