State of Kerala vs Pradeepan A4 Advocate - REVATHI K — 1340/2024

JudgementView PDF

The Judicial First Class Magistrate acquitted accused Pradeepan.P. of charges under the Kerala Forest Act 1961 for allegedly illegally cutting and removing sandalwood trees from a crematorium. The court found reasonable doubt in the prosecution's case, particularly due to the non-examination of crematorium office bearers as witnesses, lack of evidence proving the crematorium's existence, and the accused's claim of being hired as coolie workers. The court held that when doubt arises in prosecution evidence, it must favor the accused, warranting acquittal under Section 248(1) CrPC.
