Sub inspector of police vs Ochanadevar — 177/2025

Case Summary: CC 177/2025 Court Decision: The Additional Mahila Court (Women's Court) in Theni acquitted all four accused persons (Ochanadevar, Rajammal, Sivakumar, and Selmani) of charges under BNS Sections 329(3), 126(2), 296(b), 351(3), and the Tamil Nadu Prohibition of Harassment of Women Act, Section 4. The court found that the prosecution failed to prove the charges beyond reasonable doubt. Key Reasoning: The court identified significant inconsistencies in the government witnesses' testimonies regarding who specifically was abused and threatened, noted contradictions about the exact location of the incident (which fell within disputed private property subject to ongoing civil litigation), and concluded that the evidence was insufficient to establish guilt with certainty.
