    JudgementView PDF

    The Village Court of Parasala acquitted the defendant Suresh Babu of charges under IPC sections 279, 337, and 338 (rash driving and causing hurt), finding that the prosecution failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the defendant was driving the KSRTC bus (KL-15-6760) that hit a motorcycle on 21.08.2014. The court noted critical gaps in evidence: the three prosecution witnesses could not identify the bus driver or vehicle number, and no documentary proof was provided establishing the defendant's identity as the bus operator at the time of the accident. Accordingly, the defendant was acquitted under CrPC Section 278(1) and discharged unconditionally. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
