JUDEGEMENT

Case Summary Criminal Case No. 570/2021 (Judgment dated 06/04/2026) The court acquitted all 10 accused persons of gambling charges under the Gambling Act, finding the prosecution's case unproven. The judge held that while police witnesses testified about raiding an illegal online gambling operation and seizing cash and gambling equipment, the independent witnesses (panchas) failed to corroborate the allegations, and critical procedural irregularities undermined the prosecution's credibility. Applying the principle that benefit of doubt must favor the accused when the prosecution fails to prove its case beyond reasonable suspicion, the court ordered all accused to be acquitted and released. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
