    Summary The Special POCSO Court in Patan acquitted the accused Ramjiji Sureshji (also known as Suraj Hamir Thakore) of charges under IPC Sections 137(2), 78(2), and POCSO Act Section 12. The court found that while the prosecution established the victim was a minor at the time of the alleged incident on 25 September 2024, it failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the accused lured, threatened, or abducted her with sexual intent. The victim's testimony contained significant contradictions, her parents' accounts were inconsistent, and no independent corroborating evidence of the alleged offense was produced, resulting in the accused's complete acquittal. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
