evidence–Motive alleged by prosecution as regard to committing the rape can not be accepted as the appellant has been acquitted from the offence u/s. 376/511–Recoveries made at his instance are not reliable–Prosecution case is based on suspicion which cannot take the place of proof–Conviction deserves to be set aside.
