    Case Summary: ALUR PS v. SHEKHARA (2/2021) The court acquitted the accused, Shekhara (36), of charges under IPC Sections 279 (rash driving), 304(A) (causing death by negligence), and Section 187 of the Motor Vehicles Act. Despite the prosecution's claim that the accused rear-ended the victim's motorcycle on 17.08.2020, causing fatal injuries, the court found insufficient evidence to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the accused drove recklessly or negligently. The prosecution failed to establish through credible witness testimony how the accused was operating the vehicle at the time of the collision, and key prosecution witnesses gave contradictory statements. The court held that police testimony alone, without independent corroboration and necessary documentary evidence, cannot sustain a conviction in such cases.
