State - Shriwardhan P. S. vs Suraj Rajesh Gandre — 106/2025

Court Decision Summary The First Class Judicial Magistrate of Shriwardhan acquitted the accused Suraj Rajesh Gandre under Section 74 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, finding insufficient evidence to prove charges of sexual harassment. Despite the complainant's allegations that the accused touched her inappropriately and made indecent remarks on two occasions (September 9 and October 7, 2025), the court noted the complainant and her father's testimony contradicted the charges, and they later settled the dispute outside court. The court held that no credible evidence was presented linking the accused to the alleged acts, leading to his acquittal and cancellation of his bail bond.
