    Case Summary: CC No. 294/2022 Court Decision: All three accused (Ayyakannu, Veeralakshmi @ Rupadevi, and Sawariyammal) were acquitted of charges under IPC sections 294(b), 452, 323, 324, 427, and 506(ii). Key Reasoning: The court found the prosecution failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt. The complainant (PW1) and eyewitness (PW2) both testified they had reached a compromise with the accused and that the original complaint contained exaggerated facts, rendering them hostile witnesses whose testimony provided no support for conviction. The third witness (PW3) was merely a police procedural witness with no personal knowledge of the alleged incident. The court held that formal investigative evidence cannot substitute for substantive proof of guilt, and suspicion cannot replace legal evidence. Accordingly, the accused were set at liberty.
