    Case Summary: 12/2012 (RAM DHAN HALDER v. BASANTA SARDER) The court acquitted all seven accused persons charged with rioting (Section 148), attempt to murder (Section 307), and arms violations. The prosecution alleged a December 1996 land dispute incident where the accused allegedly harvested paddy from the complainant's field and fired a bullet injuring the victim. However, the court found the prosecution's evidence wholly insufficient: the victim contradicted himself by denying sustaining a bullet injury despite claiming one in his initial testimony, supporting witnesses failed to identify the accused or corroborate the alleged assault, and no injury or medical records supported the firearm allegation. The judge held the prosecution failed to prove guilt beyond reasonable doubt and that conviction cannot rest on the chargesheet alone without proper evidentiary corroboration.
