    JudgementView PDF

    Summary: The Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Raghunathpur (West Bengal) acquitted accused Raju Goswami and Perki Goswami of charges under IPC sections 498A (cruelty by husband/relatives), 323 (voluntarily causing hurt), 506 (criminal intimidation), and 34 (common intention). The court found that the prosecution witnesses (the complainant herself and her mother) failed to substantiate allegations of physical/mental torture, assault, and threats related to dowry demands, instead only testifying to a general matrimonial dispute. Since the prosecution could not prove the charges beyond reasonable doubt, both accused were acquitted and discharged from bail bonds.
