In case of accident of a pedestrian with car, if the accused has to plead himself on final argument date due to some reasons. What should be method? Should one focus on holes in the the statements of injured, I/O etc or on strong / favourable points of important witnesses. If both , then which one should be given priority. Please advise.

firstly you should focus on prosecution case weather they had made out or not, then we should focus on evidence brought before the court and then after the contradiction which is proved by the IO.

What is the prosecution case?, what is the defence lawyer's opinion and argument in the case?, a opinion cannot be given without seeing/knowing the proceedings of the case.

Thanks Mr Kalaiselvan for taking interest.
Prosecution case is that the accused has injured a boy , while driving the car rashly. (IPC 279/338).
The injured boy has accepted in the court that he was crossing the road at a point where there was no red light or zebra crossing. He also accepted that there was divider on the road with a hedge. (He actually came running from other side of the road and jumped over the divider and landed on the right front fender of the car).
There was only one police witness who has given more or less correct version in the court.
One defense witness (who called the Police control room) has also given his evidence .
The Police control call record (got under RTI) also confirms that he was running away after stealing some items.
Kindly advise.
