    Case Summary: State of Maharashtra v. Ashok Ganpat Zalte (2/2018) The Additional Sessions Court at Vaijapur acquitted defendant Ashok Ganpat Zalte of charges under IPC Sections 363, 366-A, 376(1)(2)(J)(N) and POCSO Act Section 3(b) with Section 4, finding the prosecution failed to establish its case beyond reasonable doubt. The court determined the victim's age through school records and found critical evidentiary gaps: the victim and her parents, who were key witnesses, contradicted prosecution claims and did not support the allegations of kidnapping, illegal confinement, or sexual abuse in their testimony, leaving no credible direct evidence of the alleged crimes.
