Constitution of India - Article 136 - In appropriate cases, this Court can interfere with the concurrent findings of the Courts when the assessment of evidence is vitiated by misreading of the evidence. However, this should be done in rare and exceptional cases of manifest illegality- Appeal against conviction - if this Court finds that High Court has overlooked striking features in the evidence which demolish the prosecution’s case, a finding of fact recorded can be disturbed by this Court. (Para 37-39)

Criminal Trial - Recovery of weapons at the instance of the accused - Only on the basis of recovery, by no stretch of imagination can the accused be convicted. (Para 35)
