Case Summary: State of Maharashtra v. Devchand Ramchandra Chaudhari & Others (258/2018) The Jalna Chief Judicial Magistrate acquitted all five surviving accused under IPC sections 143, 147, 148, 325, 324, and 504 on May 7, 2026, finding insufficient evidence to prove the charges beyond reasonable doubt. The court identified critical inconsistencies between the complainant's written statement and oral testimony regarding injuries (particularly regarding a broken thumb and teeth extraction), noted discrepancies in witness accounts who did not directly observe the incident, and found the seized evidence (three wooden sticks) unverifiably linked to the alleged beating. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
