Final Orders / Judgements
Case Summary: Sessions Case No. 520/2025 Court Decision: Sidharth M was acquitted of sexual assault charges under IPC Section 354A(2) and 354B and PoCSO Act provisions. The court found insufficient evidence after the alleged victim (PW1) and her father (PW2) both denied the accusations in court, disowned their police statements, and revealed the family dispute had been settled. Key Reasoning: The prosecution's case collapsed when its primary witnesses recanted their allegations. The victim denied being sexually assaulted and disowned her FIR statement; her father also denied any assault occurred. Police officer testimony alone, without direct evidence or witness corroboration, was deemed inadequate to establish guilt. The court concluded no credible evidence existed to prove the alleged offences. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
