State of Maharashtra through Police Station Officer, Police Station, Armori vs Manik Shrawan Mankar and other Advocate - P.R.Dhonge — 90/2025

Case Summary: 90/2025 Court Decision: The court acquitted all three accused (Manik Shrawan Mankar, Ritik Moreshwar Sayam, and Rajeshwar Hanuji Dumane) of charges under IPC Sections 118(1) and 3(5), finding the prosecution failed to prove the allegations beyond reasonable doubt. The complainant, an injured witness, contradicted his initial FIR statement during cross-examination, admitting he had settled the matter with the accused outside court, which fatally weakened the prosecution's case.
