JAMMU, July 4: 2nd Additional Sessions Judge Jammu, M K Sharma today acquitted four persons namely Abdul Rahim Wani, Bashir Ahmed, Malook Khan and Mohd Tahir, who were allegedly involved in alleged militant activities as prosecution miserably failed to prove the case.
After hearing both the sides, the court observed, “the entire case of prosecution rests solely on the testimony of police personnel. The independent witnesses cited have either not been examined and those who have been examined have turned hostile. This further shrouds the prosecution story with doubts”.
“Perusal of the evidence on record reveals that the only witnesses who have supported the prosecution case are police personnel. Court is of the opinion that the prosecution case is full of doubts and does not inspire confidence. The evidence collected is insufficient to connect the accused with the commission of crime of which the accused are charged”, 2nd Additional Sessions Judge said.
Accordingly, all the accused were acquitted of the charge.
