CASE SUMMARY: Government of Gujarat v. Ramnikbhai Chamanbhai Padhiyar & Others Case No.: 161/2020 Court: Judicial Magistrate First Class, Jodia, Jamnagar Decision Date: 20 March 2026 Case Duration: 5 years, 5 months, 3 days DECISION The court acquitted accused Rameshbhai (Lambo) Karshanbhai Arajanbhai Padhiyar of charges under IPC Sections 406, 420, 120(B), 504, 506(2), and 114, finding insufficient evidence to prove the case beyond reasonable doubt. KEY FACTS The prosecution alleged that the accused conspired to defraud the complainant of sewing machines worth Rs. 1,17,200/-, obtained through a phone call-based transaction on 23 December 2019, with false promises of payment that were never fulfilled. COURT'S REASONING The court found critical evidentiary gaps: panchayat witnesses to the seizure provided no corroborating testimony; no direct evidence linked the accused to the alleged conspiracy; the complainant had no prior relationship with the accused; all communications occurred via phone with unverified participants; and no documentary evidence (call recordings, mobile details) was produced establishing the accused's involvement in the alleged breach of trust or cheating.
