A man was convicted in a murder case of 1983.

The Trial Court convicted him in 1989.

The High Court upheld it in 2022.

The Supreme Court dismissed his SLP in 2023.

After all this, he now approached SC claiming that he was juvenile (15 years) at the time of commission of offence. He had never made this plea before any Courts earlier.

Anyhow, SC has now ordered enquiry.

Why?

Because Juvenile Justice Act allows him to claim it anytime !

Please share your thoughts on this:

Surendra Koli had allegedly confessed before the Magistrate U/S. 164 CrPC.

Trial Court and High Court and Supreme Court (in 2011) found that this confession as voluntary and reliable.

After his conviction in 2011, Allahabad High Court set aside conviction of accused in other 12 cases holding that the S.164 CrPC confession could not be treated as voluntary or reliable. Supreme Court upheld this acquittal in other 12 cases.

While considering Curative Petition w.r.t 2011 judgment, Supreme Court has essentially relied on these acquittals in other 12 cases.

But we find this quite intriguing !

S.164 CrPC confession was held to be voluntary in 2011 judgment by the Supreme Court.

How did Allahabad HC and later the Supreme Court find the same not to be voluntary in other 12 cases?

Was not the finding on it by Supreme Court in 2011 judgment binding on them ?
