    Judgment

    Case Summary Case 1357/2025 - State of Karnataka v. Allabhakshi Nadaf The Dharwad court acquitted bus driver Allabhakshi Nadaf of charges under BNS Sections 281 (rash/negligent driving) and 125(b) (causing grievous hurt by negligence). While the court acknowledged an accident occurred on June 23, 2025, where pedestrian Mariyappa Padagali sustained injuries from the KSRTC bus, it found insufficient evidence proving the driver acted recklessly. Key to acquittal: independent eyewitnesses refuted prosecution claims, the victim used the road despite an available 10-foot footpath, and the busy intersection's traffic density undermined negligence allegations.
