HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE PRADEEP NANDRAJOG

PRADEEP NANDRAJOG, J. (Oral)

1.

Manoj languishes in jail because vide verdict dated November 19,

2014, he has been convicted for the offence punishable under Section

380/452/398 IPC. Charged for the offence punishable under Section 411

IPC and Section 25/27 Arms Act, 1959, he has been acquitted of the two.

The reason is that the prosecution has not proved the notifications

concerning knives and daggers, possession whereof would be an offence.

The offence under Section 411 IPC probably has not been held to be made

out by the learned Trial Judge because the stolen property was recovered at

the spot itself. I find there is no discussion in the impugned judgment

concerning the offences punishable under
