It is settled principle of law that the prosecution has to stand on its own legs and merely on the levelling of allegation of committing a heinous offence; it is not duty of the court that one should have been convicted at all costs. The benefit of a doubt, if arises from the evidence on the record, even of a slightest nature has to go to the accused and merely weakness of the defence version or non-proving thereof cannot be used for the benefit of the prosecution, which failed to establish its version through the evidence of unimpeachable character.
