Judgement

Summary: The Kerala court acquitted 18-year-old Kannan @ Akhil of all charges including rash/negligent driving (IPC §279), causing hurt/grievous hurt (§337, §338), causing death by negligence (§304A), and driving without a valid license (Motor Vehicles Act §3(1) r/w §181). The court found the prosecution failed to prove its case as all material eyewitnesses turned hostile and testified they did not witness the motorcycle hitting the deceased; additionally, the investigating officer admitted he never established who actually drove the vehicle. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
