    Case Summary: 188/2022 Court Decision: The court acquitted defendants Rajeshkumar, Karthikeyan, and the fourth defendant of charges under IPC Sections 120(b), 109, and 307 read with Section 34, finding insufficient evidence to prove the prosecution's case beyond reasonable doubt. The first defendant (Rajasekaran) died during proceedings, rendering charges against him moot. All three accused were discharged under CrPC Section 235(1). Key Reasoning: While the victim's testimony established that the first defendant attacked him with a knife on March 13, 2016, the remaining defendants' involvement in conspiracy and abetment could not be substantiated. Hearsay evidence and witnesses who did not directly observe the other defendants' participation proved insufficient to meet the standard of proof required in criminal law.
