    Case Summary: State of Rajasthan v. Gopal Advocate - Ganesh Gurjar (11/2025) The court acquitted the accused Gopal (age 24, resident of Morchana, Rajnagar) of charges under Sections 75 and 79 of the Juvenile Justice Act, 2015 and Section 374 IPC (child labor/exploitation). While prosecution witnesses testified that a 17-year-old boy was found working at the accused's motorcycle repair shop, the court found critical gaps in evidence—no independent witnesses, no documentary proof of the child's age, and no corroboration from school authorities. The court held that benefit of doubt must be given to the accused, as the prosecution failed to establish the child's minority status beyond reasonable doubt, thereby acquitting him and releasing his bail.
