Judgment text as reported

Ashir alias Waseem VS State Ss. 377-B, 506-B & 34---Sexual abuse, criminal intimidation, common intention---Appreciation of evidence---Delay of 23 days in lodging FIR---Accused was charged that he along with his co-accused persons committed sodomy with the brother of the complainant at gun point and threatened him that if he disclosed such fact to anyone, they would kill him---From perusal of the record, it appeared that the alleged incident took place on 30.04.2022, whereas the FIR was lodged on 23.05.2022, after a delay of 23 days---Delay in lodging of the FIR assumed great significance as the same could be attributed to consultation, taking instructions and calculatedly preparing the report keeping the names of the accused open for roping in such persons whom ultimately the prosecution might wish to implicate---Circumstances established that the prosecution had failed to prove its case against the accused beyond any reasonable doubt---Appeal against conviction was accordingly allowed.
