A court in Thane, Maharashtra, acquitted a father and son accused of murdering a 23-year-old man in June 2022. The duo, Avinash Rambadan Yadav and his father Rambadan Barsan Yadav, were charged with killing Sunil Jagannath Yadav over an alleged love affair with Avinash's daughter. The prosecution alleged the victim was beaten, sustaining 46 blunt-force wounds, and died three days later. The court cited a lack of evidence, delays in complaint lodging, and inconsistencies in witness testimonies, granting the accused the benefit of the doubt.
