State of Bihar through Jamina Khatun vs MD Naushad — 21/2026

Court Decision Summary The Sessions Court, Darbhanga acquitted all eight accused persons (Md. Naushad, Md. Manjur, Md. Asraf, Md. Aslam, Md. Daud, Sabana Khatoon, Nazma Khatoon, and Khaitoon Khatoon) of charges under IPC sections 341/34, 308/34, and 324/34, finding that the prosecution failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt. The court noted that key prosecution witnesses, including the informant herself, contradicted the allegations in cross-examination, admitting they had not directly witnessed the alleged assault and that injuries resulted from slipping in mud during a quarrel among children rather than from intentional assault.
