💨 Abstract

A court in Maharashtra's Thane district acquitted a 30-year-old man, Vaibhav Bhagat, accused of murder in 2015. The judge cited contradictions in witness statements, insufficient evidence, and police procedural lapses. The allegations involved a fatal altercation with an iron spade. The sole eyewitness retracted his testimony, and other witnesses did not support the prosecution.
