Whether Recovery of Articles belonging to Deceased can be Treated as Proof of Committing Crime [JUDGMENT]
The Indian Penal Code, 1860 - Sections 302, 364, 328, 394 and 201 - Murder - Recovery of the Ornaments - The only evidence that has been projected by the prosecution against the accused is the recovery of the ornaments which purportedly belongs to the deceased. The recovery of the articles belonging to the deceased may in some instances be treated as proof of committing the crime, but, in cases where there is doubt as to whether the ornaments actually belonged to the deceased, it will be difficult to take such a view as well.
