    Court Summary The Sessions Court of Dhule acquitted accused Chetan Ravsaheb Dhamne of charges under IPC Section 354-A, POCSO Act Section 8, and SC/ST Atrocities Act, finding insufficient evidence to prove the alleged sexual assault on a minor. The court noted critical evidentiary failures: the victim could not be secured despite repeated summons, key eyewitnesses turned hostile, and only hearsay testimony from the victim's father was available.
