The judgment passed by a Bench of Justices Debangsu Basak and Md Shabbar Rashidi said that the trial judge failed to embark on an exercise to find out whether the convict was beyond reformation or not.
“In the facts of the present case, the state has neither at the stage of the trial nor before us in appeal provided any materials to show that the convict was beyond reformation and rehabilitation,” the court recorded.
