    JudgmentView PDF

    The Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Kalna acquitted all five accused persons (Sadhan Santra, Bidhan Santra, Anima Santra, Madan Santra, and Subho Santra) of charges under IPC sections 448/323/504/506/188/34, finding that the prosecution failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt. The court noted that the key prosecution witness (PW-1) testified the matter was settled amicably and held no grievance against the accused, and that suspicion cannot replace proof.
