    Court Decision Summary The Additional Sessions Judge at Vita acquitted two defendants (Gopichand Kundlik Padalkar and Brahmadev Kundlik Padalkar) of charges under the Atrocities (Prevention) Act 2015 on March 7, 2026. The court found insufficient evidence that the defendants unlawfully dispossessed a scheduled caste complainant of agricultural land and a water well through fraudulent property transactions conducted between 2008-2011, concluding the prosecution failed to prove the case beyond reasonable doubt.
