THE INSPECTOR OF POLICE NATHAM PS vs BALAJI — 196/2025

Court Judgment Summary The district criminal court acquitted the accused of charges under Sections 281 and 106(1) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), finding that the prosecution failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the accused drove recklessly or caused a fatal road accident. The court determined that while a death occurred from a collision involving the accused's vehicle, the evidence—particularly witness testimonies—created sufficient doubt about the accused's culpability, warranting acquittal under the benefit of doubt principle.
