    Summary The District & Additional Sessions Judge, Biraul acquitted all six accused persons of charges under IPC sections 341, 323, 325, 307, 504, 506, and 34, finding that the prosecution failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt. The court noted that the three prosecution witnesses, including the informant and the victim, contradicted the FIR allegations by testifying they did not witness any assault by the accused and that injuries resulted from the victim falling while chasing a duck. The court applied the cardinal principle that the burden lies on the prosecution to establish guilt beyond reasonable doubt, and discharged the accused from bail bond liabilities.
