https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=311811 Section 401(3) of the Criminal Procedure Code limits the High Court's revisional power to convert acquittal into conviction, but that restriction does not curtail the Supreme Court's power under Article 136. The text states that minor inconsistencies, embellishments or improvements in eyewitness accounts in a large riot case do not justify wholesale rejection of otherwise consistent testimony, and credible ocular evidence may prevail over medical opinion.
