    Judgement

    Case Summary: CC No. 7198/2018 Decision: The court acquitted Arun Kumar T of all charges under IPC sections 498A (cruelty by husband), 323 (voluntarily causing hurt), and 324 (causing hurt with weapon) on April 28, 2026. Key Reasoning: The prosecution's case collapsed when the sole witness (PW1/the complainant wife) turned hostile and retracted her allegations, stating the matter was amicably settled. With no incriminating evidence and the complainant withdrawing support, the prosecution failed to prove guilt, leading to acquittal under CrPC section 248(1). The accused's bail bond was discharged and he was released. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
