Copy of Judgment

Summary The Special Court acquitted the accused in both cases (Spl.S.C. Nos. 56/2024 and 57/2024) on charges under IPC Section 379 and Section 21(4) of the Mines and Minerals (Development and Regulation) Act, 1957, respectively. The court found that the prosecution failed to establish sufficient evidence of unauthorized mining and transport of minerals without government permission, as the government witnesses' testimonies contained significant gaps, inconsistencies, and lack of proper documentation regarding the seized vehicles and mined minerals. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
