Since the recovery of the same truck has been recovered from District Lucknow itself, on the basis of the recovery, applicant has been implicated and thereafter the implication of the applicant alongwith other co-accused has been made in Case Crime No.1145 of 2001 registered at District Basti also. On precise query made before learned counsel for the applicant that at any stage whether this defence has been taken up either before learned trial court at Lucnow or opposed the same has been fairly admitted that the vital aspect of this matter has been unfortunately left to be apprised to the learned trial court and as such the same has not been given any consideration over the same.
