Case Summary: R.C.C. No. 374/2022 Court Decision: Both accused (Chandrajeet Marotirao Gilche and Vilas Baburao Jadhav) were acquitted of all charges under IPC Sections 354, 354-A, 294, 504, and 506 read with Section 34. Key Reasoning: The court found material deficiencies in the prosecution's case. Although the victim-informant testified to alleged assault, sexual harassment, obscene remarks, and threats, her testimony was not corroborated by available eyewitnesses (bus driver, conductor, or passengers who were admitted to be present). Critically, the investigating officer failed to record statements from any independent passengers or witnesses despite their presence. Available CCTV footage from the bus stand was not produced, and no medical evidence documented alleged injury marks despite the victim's claims. The court ruled that bare victim testimony without reliable corroboration, combined with withholding of best available evidence, fell short of the "beyond reasonable doubt" standard required for conviction.
