JUDGMENT: WITH CRIMINAL APPEAL NO.785 OF 1989 J U M N T NANAVATI. J. Both these appeals arise out of the judgment of the High Court of Punjab and Haryana in Criminal Appeal No.59 of 1986. The High Court allowed the appeal, set aside the conviction and acquitted the respondents who were tried by the court of Additional Sessions Judge, Barnala, in Sessions Case No. 26 of 1984. The three respondents were also tried along with six others in Sessions Case No.15 of 1984 for the same offences but on a complaint field by the injured victim Harjinder Singh.
