    Case Summary: 11648/2022 Court Decision: The court acquitted all three accused persons under IPC Section 304(M) (causing death by negligence), finding insufficient evidence to prove the charges beyond reasonable doubt. Key Facts: On November 3, 2021, a worker (Mahantesh Kahar) died at a Brigade El-Dorado apartment construction site in Bangalore after a cement brick fell on his head. The prosecution alleged the three accused—the site manager, a coordinator, and managing director—caused the death through gross negligence by failing to provide safety measures, equipment, and proper warnings to workers. Reasoning: Despite prosecution witnesses testifying about unsafe conditions and lack of safety protocols, the court found the evidence insufficient to establish criminal negligence conclusively, leading to acquittal.
