GOVERNMENT OF GUJARAT vs BHARAT VALABHAI KOLI Advocate - S I NAREJA — 172/2025

Summary The Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate's court in Bhachau, Kutch, acquitted three defendants (Bhartbhai Valabhai Koli, Prabhubhai Rasangbhai Koli, and Hareshbhai Ramabhai Koli) of charges under IPC Sections 74, 342, 341(2), 44, and GPS Act Section 135. The court found that while the complainant and her husband testified to the alleged incident of abduction and threats, the prosecution failed to establish sufficient corroborating evidence linking the accused to the crimes beyond reasonable doubt, particularly regarding documents and circumstantial evidence that could not definitively prove the accused committed the alleged offenses.
