The evidence of P.W. 4 Des Raj who was working in his field at about 5 or 5.30 p.m. shows he had seen the deceased going on a cycle towards Burj Raika with a jhola. He had witnessed appellant, Buta Singh and Avtar Singh having a quarrel with the deceased. The appellant had a kirpan with him at that time. The evidence of P.W. 5 Jagdev Singh shows that at about 7.00 p.m. when he was returning to his home from his fields he had seen appellant Gian Singh armed with a kirpan and holding a cycle in his hand.
