Section 313 CrPC | Failure to Confront Accused with Viscera Report Fatal to Murder Conviction: Allahabad HC Acquits
The Allahabad High Court set aside a murder conviction after finding that the trial court violated Section 313 CrPC by not confronting the accused with the viscera report-a material piece of evidence. The ruling underscores that procedural compliance under Section 313 is non-negotiable, and its breach irreparably vitiates the trial, regardless of the offence's gravity.
