1. Renewal of a lease is not an automatic or vested right. It remains a discretionary exercise, conditional upon the lessee’s scrupulous adherence to the terms of the original lease. A lessee found to be in persistent breach of conditions or indulging in commercial misuse cannot claim equitable consideration for renewal. In such circumstances, the writ petitioners lacks the locus to seek or enforce renewal of the lease.
2. In a case where the victim is raped and done to death, if the trial Court finds overwhelming evidence of a sexual assault on the victim, it cannot ignore the commission of rape and convict the accused solely for the murder; the judgment must take note of and record the conviction for all offences established by evidence, including sexual assault, alongside the homicidal act.
