THE STATE OF GUJARAT vs ASHOKBHAI RATILAL CHUNARA — 151/2026

JudegementView PDF

Summary The court acquitted the accused (Ashoklal Chunara) in Criminal Case No. 151/2026 under IPC Section 65(a)(a), finding insufficient evidence to prove the charges beyond reasonable doubt. The court reasoned that the prosecution failed to provide credible independent witness testimony—the two panchayat witnesses who testified could not properly support the evidence due to procedural defects, and the accused's cross-examination was not conducted as required under CrPC Section 299 (trial in absence of absconded accused). Consequently, the charges were not substantiated, and the accused was acquitted and discharged. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
