Case Summary: C.A.No.52/2025 The Additional District Court, Virudhunagar dismissed the appellant Selvam's appeal on 07.04.2026, confirming his conviction under IPC sections 457 and 380 for house-breaking at night and theft in a dwelling house. The court found the prosecution proved beyond reasonable doubt that Selvam burglarized the complainant's home on 26.08.2011, stealing 16 sovereign gold jewelry and Rs.20,000 cash. The court upheld the trial court's reliance on eyewitness testimony from family members and hospital employees, rejecting arguments about witness credibility and lack of complete jewelry recovery, confirming sentences of 6 months rigorous imprisonment and Rs.5,000 fine for each offense.
