Final Orders / Judgements
Court Summary The Fast Track Special Court, Taliparamba acquitted Sachin Chandran E of charges under Section 354(D) IPC and POCSO Act 2012 (Sections 11(v) r/w 12 and 13(c) r/w 14) for allegedly creating and distributing morphed obscene photos of a 12-year-old girl. The court found critical procedural defects in the prosecution's digital evidence: WhatsApp and ISP tracking data lacked proper Section 63 BSA certificates, the morphing was never scientifically proven, and exact message transmission times were never established—making IP-based identification legally insufficient despite circumstantial indicators. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
