1997 (5) TMI 52 - SUPREME COURTOrder of conviction and sentence passed for various offences punishable under Sections 302, 307, 225, 333 of the Indian Penal Code challenged Held that:- The manner in which the incident took place leaves no manner of doubt that the appellant purposely and intentionally dashed against these Custom Officers wherein Mahindersinh was crushed to death. The appellant on the second time also brought the truck in speed after taking a turn and dashed against Somaji who sustained injuries and later on died in the hospital. In view of these circumstances, we have no manner of doubt that the appellant had intentionally caused the deaths of Mahindersinh Rayjada and Somaji Thakor. The conviction of the appellant passed under Section 302 of the Indian Penal Code, therefore, does not suffer from any infirmity. The learned Advocate for the appellant was unable to point out any error in the impugned judgment as regards the convictions of the appellant passed on other counts. Appeal dismissed.
