Case Summary: STC.No.408/2025 This case involves a witness deposition (PW.7 Vinothkumar) in a traffic accident investigation at Judicial Magistrate Court, Kariapatti. On March 10, 2019, a vehicle collision occurred involving a car (TN 58 AB 9352) and a two-wheeler (TN 59 BR 0866), injuring two persons. The investigating officer registered an FIR under IPC Sections 279 and 337, later amended to include Section 338 after medical reports revealed serious injuries to one victim. The respondent Balamurugan allegedly drove one of the vehicles involved in the accident. During cross-examination, the respondent's counsel challenged the investigation credibility, suggesting private hospitals may inflate injury severity for profit and that the complaint was fabricated for compensation purposes. The witness maintained that proper investigation protocols were followed, including scene documentation, medical records collection, and vehicle inspection reports. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
