Judgment

Case 396/2024 Summary: The Additional Civil Judge acquitted accused Raghavendra K S of charges under IPC Sections 279 (rash/negligent driving) and 304(A) (death by negligence) in a fatal motor vehicle collision case. The court found that the prosecution entirely failed to prove its case, as all independent witnesses—including the deceased's son (complainant), eyewitnesses, and mahazar witnesses—turned hostile and denied the prosecution's allegations despite cross-examination. Without credible independent witness corroboration, the court held the prosecution evidence insufficient to establish the accused's guilt beyond reasonable doubt. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
