Judgment

The District & Additional Sessions Judge acquitted all seven accused persons (Jaiprakash Kumar, Om Prakash Kumar, Manoj Yadav, Sanoj Kumar, Anoj Kumar, Alok Kumar, and Janesgwar Yadav) of charges under IPC sections 341/34, 323/34, 427/34, 436/34, 448/34, 506/34 and SC/ST Act provisions, finding the prosecution failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt. The informant retracted his accusations during cross-examination, admitting it was dark during the incident and he saw no one set the fire, while other prosecution witnesses were declared hostile and provided no corroborating evidence, resulting in the court determining the evidence was "pathetically insufficient." This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
