Court Decision Summary The Additional Sessions Judge acquitted Vivek Kumar of electricity theft charges under Section 138(B) of the Electricity Act 2003. The court found that the prosecution failed to prove the specific elements required for conviction, including the quantum of electricity stolen and financial benefit gained by the accused. Notably, the accused had already paid all outstanding electricity dues (₹1,30,211), penalties (₹26,000), and charges (₹2,852) to the electricity department, and the department confirmed no objection to closing the criminal case. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
