Copy of Judgment

The Additional Sessions Judge dismissed both criminal revision petitions challenging the magistrate's rejection of discharge applications filed by three accused persons (labour contractor, site supervisor, and site engineer) charged under Section 304-A IPC for causing death by negligence. The court found prima facie evidence that the accused's rash and negligent conduct—including forcing workers to handle an electric motor in water-logged conditions without proper safety measures—directly caused the electrocution death of a laborer, establishing sufficient grounds to proceed with trial. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
