Final Orders / Judgements
The court acquitted Sabu Varghese, a practicing lawyer, of all charges including trespass, criminal intimidation, obscene gestures, and threats against a Judicial First Class Magistrate. The key reasoning was that the primary witness (the complainant herself) significantly retracted her allegations during trial, failed to identify the accused as the perpetrator, and admitted her original complaint was based on misunderstandings. All other prosecution witnesses testified only through hearsay with no direct knowledge, and the court found the prosecution failed to prove guilt beyond reasonable doubt. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
