    MOOT COURT PROBLEM
    SUBJECT: MOOT COURT, PAPER CODE: LM 429

    Rahul was married to Sikha on 29.04.2002 and after the marriage Rahul and his

    mother demanded a colour TV as dowry. On 19.5.2009 Rahul and his wife quarreled

    in the morning which was witnessed by his wife’s sister Gitanjali who was staying

    with them. At 2o’clock in the afternoon when Rahul came home, his wife sent

    Gitanjali to bring back their child, who had gone out to play.

    Gitanjali saw smoke coming out from the house while returning with the child and

    found her sister lying burnt, and Rahul was standing nearby.

    She called her grandfather, who stayed nearby and when her grandfather came to

    the house of Rahul, Rahul’s wife allegedly made an oral dying declaration to have

    been burnt by Rahul. From the evidence of Rahul’s sister in law it appears that on

    the advice of the grandfather Rahul left the house to call the doctor and by then his

    wife was conscious and talking. She died after Rahul left the house.

    Post mortem examination reveals that there were superficial burns covering the

    whole body of the deceased which was not fatal according to the doctor’s opinion.

    The doctor also found fracture of the hyoid bone which was the cause of her death in

    his opinion.

    The session Judge convicted Rahul U/s 302 of IPC and sentenced him to death. He

    however acquitted Rahul of the charges U/s 498-A and 304-B of IPC.
    The convict prefers appeal and also files bail application along with the appeal

    memo.

    Argue the matter

    Students with Odd Class Registration Number will argue for the
    Appellant.

    Students with Even Class Registration Number will argue for


    the Respondent.
