The Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973  - Section 378

Appeal against Acquittal - Trial Court has given a reasoned decision after careful and thorough analysis of the evidence produced by the parties - Trial Court also had the advantage of looking at the demeanor of the witnesses, and was correct in granting the benefit of doubt to the accused and acquitting them - High Court erred in presuming a version against the accused as the view which is favourable to the accused should be taken in cases where two views are probable.
