Cri.Appeals 516, 281 n 468 of 2012.odt
rt
Constitution Bench of the Hon'ble Supreme Court time and again
it appears to us that for deciding just and appropriate sentence to
C
ou
be awarded for an offence aggravating and mitigating factors and
circumstances in which crime has been committed are to be
delicately balanced in a dispassionate manner. We now propose
to deal with aggravating and mitigating circumstances in the
AGGRAVATING CIRCUMSTANCES :
a)
H
85.
ig
h
present case.
The offence committed by Accused No.1 Jawedkhan
ba
y
had not been committed on the spur of moment. It
was preplanned. Accused No.1 entered the house to
commit theft but did not stop there and in order to
om
satisfy his lust forcibly raped a young defenceless
lone girl and then eliminated her life in a beastly, brutal
and barbaric manner. We consider this grisly and a
B
gory episode as an ultimate insult to the humanity in
general and womanhood in particular.
b)
Subsequent conduct of accused indicates that he had
felt no remorse.
c)
Neither the victim nor her family members had any
animosity with the accused.
