Case Summary: State of Bihar v. Rupesh Singh & Santu Kumar (548/2025) Court Decision: Both accused Rupesh Singh and Santu Kumar were acquitted of charges under Section 103 and 3(5) of the BNS (murder). The court found insufficient direct or circumstantial evidence linking them to the death of the deceased (Ajay Singh). Key Reasoning: While the autopsy confirmed the deceased died from severe trauma (cervical spine fracture, multiple rib fractures, hemorrhagic shock), the prosecution failed to establish the accused's culpability. Critical evidentiary gaps included: seized items were not produced in court; no witness directly observed the alleged murder; the informant could not identify who actually committed the crime; and the accused's names surfaced only on suspicion. The court concluded that though the death appeared suspicious, the prosecution had not met the burden of proof beyond reasonable doubt. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
