1985 (3) TMI 305 - SC - Indian Laws

The Supreme Court dismissed a Special Leave Petition by the first accused in a criminal case, criticizing the High Court's misapplication of legal principles regarding the weight of evidence, including eyewitness testimony and confessions. The Court emphasized that a truthful eyewitness account can be sufficient for a conviction and that a confession, if corroborated, can also form the basis for a conviction. The High Court's view that a confession alone cannot prove guilt was deemed erroneous.
