Section 149 IPC: It is not necessary that each member of an unlawful assembly to commit overt act but once participation and sharing of a common object is proved every member is liable for the offence
Informer (unidentified informant) not examined before the court nor his statement was reduced hence accused aquitted
Permission to cross-examine (hostile) the witness by the party calling should be given only in special cases
Acquittal: Trial court did not question accused as per the mandate of section 313 Cr.P.C but in a mechanical manner which causes prejudice to the accused
