Judgment

Court Decision Summary The court acquitted Mohammed Rfiq of all charges under IPC Sections 279 (rash/negligent driving) and 304-A (causing death by negligence), and Section 187 of the Motor Vehicles Act. The judge found that the prosecution failed to prove guilt beyond reasonable doubt because multiple key witnesses (mahazar witnesses, inquest witnesses, and eye witnesses) turned hostile and provided no corroborating evidence of the accused's involvement in the fatal accident that killed Manjunath on May 12, 2023. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
