What is the summary of this judgment?
There is a choice, not only of forum, but also of procedure and the extent of the maximum penalty.

What is the summary of this judgment?
There are cases and cases and each must be decided on its own facts. Now it is obvious that if section 197 of the Code of Criminal Procedure is construed too narrowly it can never be applied, for of course it is no part of an official 's duty to commit an offence and never can be. But it is not the duty we have to exam...

What is the summary of this judgment?
Now an offence seldom consists of a single act. It is usually composed of several elements and, as a rule, a whole series of acts must be proved before it can be 1187 established.

What is the summary of this judgment?
He actually permitted their release and purported to do it in an official capacity, and apart from the fact that he did not pretend to act privately, there was no other way in which he could have done it.

What is the summary of this judgment?
We now turn to the appeal of the first accused. He has been convicted under section 409 of the Indian Penal Code read with section 34.

What is the summary of this judgment?
This is wrong, for it is the essence of the section that the person must be physically present at the actual commission of the crime.

It is essential that they join in the actual doing of the act and not merely in planning its perpetration. The section has been elaborately explained by Lord Sumner in Barendra Kumar Ghosh vs The King Emperor(1). At page 52, he explains that "participation in action" is the leading feature of section 34.

What is the summary of this judgment?
The misdirection is plain and it goes to the root of the matter because the jury returned a verdict of guilty under section 409 of the Indian Penal Code read with section 34 alone and not under section 409 read with section 109. It is part of the defence of the first accused that he was not present when the goods were ...

What is the summary of this judgment?
1190 cannot be convicted with the aid of section 34. He could have been convicted of the abetment had the jury returned a verdict to that effect because there is evidence of abetment and the charge about abetment is right in law. But the jury ignored the abetment part of the charge and we have no means of knowing wheth...

The learned trial Judge told the jury that "the evidence led by the prosecution about the payment of the Rs. 4,000 is proved to be utterly useless", and in telling them why he gave them a number of reasons.

What is the summary of this judgment?
We have now to consider whether there should be a retrial. As the present trial cannot proceed against the second accused, and as all the accused are said to have acted in concert each playing an appointed part in a common plan, we do not think it would be right 1191 to direct a retrial though this is the normal course...

What is the summary of this judgment?
It is only in the event of the appellant being punished that any grievance can arise for him to be agitated in the proper forum.
