    Summary: The Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Kalna acquitted all four accused persons (Rakat Ali, Bapi Sk, Morjina Bibi, and Manik Sk) of charges under IPC sections 447/323/354/34 for allegedly assaulting the complainant Ayesa Bibi in 2014. The court found that the prosecution failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt, as both key prosecution witnesses (the complainant and her husband) testified that the matter had been amicably settled and they held no grievance against the accused. The court emphasized that suspicion cannot replace proof and granted the accused benefit of doubt. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
