casestatus.in Summary

Summary The Session Court, Kannauj acquitted all 11 accused persons in two consolidated cases arising from communal riots on July 16, 2022, in Kannauj district. The court found that the prosecution failed to prove charges under IPC Sections 147, 148, 427/149, 436/149, and 341/149, and Section 7 CLA Act beyond reasonable doubt. Key reasons: the FIR was registered against unknown persons; eyewitness testimonies were contradictory and declared hostile; the main witness (complainant) was not an eyewitness; and critical physical evidence (burnt huts, animal remains) was never documented or seized, resulting in complete absence of forensic evidence.
