Case Summary: Special (Electricity) Court, Jamnagar - Case No. 413/2023 Court's Decision: The Special (Electricity) Court acquitted Makvana Rajubhai Somabhai under the Indian Electricity Act, 2003, Section 135, finding the prosecution failed to prove the electricity theft charge beyond reasonable doubt. The court held that critical evidence was insufficient—including lack of videography of the alleged offense, no physical recovery of stolen materials, and credibility gaps in witness testimony regarding the private wire connection allegedly installed at the accused's residence.
