    Summary The Special POCSO Court in Bhuj, Gujarat acquitted accused Arvind Narkhan Dantaniya of charges under Sections 137(2), 87, 64(2)(M) of BNS and Sections 3(a), 4, 5(l), 6 of the POCSO Act 2012. The court found that the prosecution failed to prove the victim's minority at the time of the alleged incident and that the accused had abducted and sexually assaulted the victim—all key prosecution witnesses (victim and both parents) denied the alleged offences, and the FSL report provided no supporting evidence.
