    Case 7/2025 Summary Court Decision: The court acquitted Ashok Kumar (A1) and Chandrasekar (A2) of charges under IPC sections 294(b), 342, 307, and 506(2) r/w 34, finding the prosecution failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt. The third accused (Seenivasan) was also acquitted of the same charges. The court granted the benefit of doubt to the accused and ordered their release under CrPC section 235(1). Key Reasoning: The primary eyewitness (victim Gopinathan) contradicted the prosecution's narrative by stating he didn't know the accused or details of the incident, and that police obtained his signature on blank paper. Most other prosecution witnesses either claimed ignorance or provided contradictory testimony, undermining the government's case entirely.
