Judgement

The Neyyattinkara First Class Magistrate Court acquitted two accused persons (Abdul Salam and Anas) of theft charges under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, finding reasonable doubt regarding their identity and the prosecution's case. The court held that the case relied solely on a police-custody confession, which is inadmissible under Section 23 of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023, and the sole eyewitness could not identify the helmeted accused or describe their physical features. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
