    The Nedumangad Magistrate Court discharged and acquitted Sanal Kumar under Section 321 of the CrPC, allowing the prosecution's withdrawal application based on a Kerala Government order from November 2022. The court found the application was made in good faith and in the interests of public policy and justice, considering the petty nature of the charges related to violating epidemic control regulations (not wearing a mask or maintaining social distance).
