Summary The Judicial Magistrate Court II, Usilampatti acquitted both accused (Eswaran and Vigneshkumar) of charges under BNS sections 296(b), 115(2), and 351(2) for alleged assault and criminal intimidation. The court found that the prosecution failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt, as the complainant and eyewitnesses turned hostile, testified about a compromise, and provided exaggerated facts, while procedural evidence alone from the investigating officer could not establish guilt.
