Final Orders / Judgements
Judgment Summary The Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Ranaghat acquitted Rahul Chowdhury of charges under Section 85/316(2) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (dowry harassment and wrongful confinement), finding that the prosecution failed to establish any ingredients of the alleged offense and lacked substantial evidence. The court noted critically that the de facto complainant failed to corroborate her written complaint during deposition, which was fatal to the prosecution case. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
