Respondent
reasonable doubt-On close reading of the materials, which have been produced before the Court below would clearly go to show that the entire case rests on circumstantial evidence. There are no eye witnesses to the alleged incident. It is the well proposed proposition of law that if the case is rests on circumstantial evidence, under such cii cumstances, the prosecution has to prove all the circumstances. All the circumstances are to be linked with one another and the Court will be in a position to see the chain of evidences and if the chain of events and important links have been established by the prosecution, then, it could be said that prosecution has been proved the case beyond all reasonable doubt.
