Criminal Trial–Arrest of accused–Appellant was apprehended by the Investigation Officer on 03.06.2014 whereas statements u/s. 161 of almost all witnesses were recorded after his arrest–The only fact that he came to fore was, that both brothers were estranged–The appellant was therefore arrested purely on surmises–There was no incriminating substance or credible information or reasonable ground to even suspect, which could have prompted the Investigation Officer to arrest the appellant–Arrest itself was illegal and it is possible that the Investigation Officer for reasons best known to him, has created or cooked up evidence in order to inculpate the appellant.
