sirs,
facts of my case is that 3 persons were found transporting indian made foreign licquior from pondichery state to kerala state in an auto-riksha.
accused no. 1and 2 were passengers sitting in the back seat carrying the entire contra- band articles.nothing was recovered from the possession of a 3 (driver).excise officals also admitted that they have not seen driver helping the passengers to put the mo in to his auto also.
I AM FOR A 3(AUTO DRIVER) ONLY.
IN THIS CASE, EVEN IF THE ENTIRE PROSECUTION CASE IS ADMITTED, IS IT NOT A3 ENTITLED TO ACQUITTAL ?
I AM TOLD THAT SUPREME COURT HAS MADE THIS POSITION CLEAR IN 1967 STATING THAT IN SUCH CASES PROSECUTION HAS TO PROVE THAT MOS WERE TRANSPORTED WITH THE KNOWLEDGE AND CONNIVANCE OF DRIVER ALSO.OTHERWISE, DRIVER IS NOT LIABLE.
ANYBODY, HAVING THAT PARTICULAR RULING/ ANY OTHER LATEST RULING, REPORTED IN AIR,CRIMINAL LAW JOURNAL. KLT, KLD,

Respected Seniors:
In a complaint ( Basing on the dishonour of cheque which was issued by the Accused for partpayment of the promissory note debt) U/S 138 and 142 of N.I.Act the list of witnessess who are scribe and Attestor of the promissory note were not mentioned. But the Managers of the Accused Bank and Complainant Bank only were mentioned as List of witnessess.
Now the Complainant was examined as PW-1. He wants to examine the attestor of the promissory note to prove his debt.
What is the option available to the Complainant to examine the attestor.
