Final Orders / Judgements
Summary The Sessions Court set aside its earlier direction requiring the Investigating Officer (IO) to pay Rs. 50,000 compensation to each of two acquitted accused persons, finding the IO's explanation satisfactory after being given proper opportunity to be heard. The court held that the predecessor judge's adverse findings were based on isolated statements rather than complete appreciation of evidence, and that mere acquittal after trial does not establish negligence or misconduct against the IO absent clear malafide conduct—compensation awards against investigating officers must be exercised sparingly and only in cases of gross abuse of process. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
