Q 1:- A person has died by strangulation and a rope is found, how would this rope would be connected to the accused. How would Judge appreciate the evidence? What would be material evidence to this regard?
Ans:- In such a case, the rope by itself is not enough; it must be linked to the accused through a complete chain of medical, forensic, recovery, and circumstantial evidence. The court should see whether the rope is proved to be the likely ligature used, whether it is connected with the accused, and whether all circumstances together exclude innocence.
