✅ Courts must separate truth from embellishment and avoid convicting passive bystanders.
✅ The prosecution must prove “common object” beyond reasonable doubt for group liability.
Statutes:
✅ Section 147, 148, 149, 302, 324, 323 IPC
✅ Section 27, Arms Act
✅ Section 154, 161 CrPC

Can an oral gift (Hiba) of immovable property, claimed decades later, stand its ground against consistent documentary evidence of possession and the bar of limitation?
Key Takeaways:
✅ Supreme Court clarifies that oral gifts under Mohammedan Law require clear proof of possession and mutation in revenue records to be valid.
✅ Mere oral claims or long-delayed assertions, without public acts of ownership, cannot override registered titles or established possession.
✅ The law favours those who safeguard their rights — late claims unsupported by documents face legal hurdles.

* Indian Evidence Act, 1872 - Section 50, 73
* Transfer of Property Act, 1882 - Section 129
