Final Orders / Judgements
Summary of Court Decision The Principal Sessions Judge of Vellore District acquitted both accused persons of all charges on March 7, 2026, finding the prosecution failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt. The key issues were the collapse of crucial eyewitness testimony (the primary eyewitness and other material witnesses turned hostile during trial) and the death of the complainant during investigation, leaving no reliable ocular evidence to connect the accused with the alleged assault using a broken glass bottle. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
