Summary The Special POCSO Court in Rajkot acquitted the accused, Vidhmakamar Viaysingh Kushwaha, of charges under IPC sections 137(2), 87, 64(2), 69(1) and POCSO Act sections 4 and 6, finding that the prosecution failed to prove the allegations beyond reasonable doubt. Although the victim testimony initially supported the charges of kidnapping and rape of a minor girl, critical evidentiary gaps—particularly the absence of corroborating medical evidence of sexual assault and the victim's lack of clear testimony supporting forced intercourse—led the court to acquit the accused, giving him benefit of doubt as per established criminal jurisprudence.
