MEERUT: Mohd Salamuddin, 62, who has fought the case in court for the past 26 years, is a relieved man now after the court recently congribes to “lack of evidence”.
This small farmer, has more than 10 Bighas of Land, is a villager in Shamli and 36 when Muzaffarnagar police posted him under the action of weapons for allegedly having four bullets in 1995.
Over the past 26 years and after 200 hearings, Salauddin maintained That the accusation was leveled with “wrong” and that he had “framed” by his relatives “out of personal hostility”.
He was arrested in 1995 and he even served 20 days in prison.
“My whole life was spent to attend court hearings.
The case sucks my income too.
What should I say? I thank God,” Saudaradin said.
Judge Magistrate’s head Manoj Kumar, in his order, observed that prosecution did not give allegations or produce any evidence before the court during the trial.
Their right to testify was drawn in 2019.
Salauddin’s son, Ashu Ahmad, said his father developed thrombosis at the foot, which caused him severe pain when he walked far away.
“As a result, he must take painkillers before going to court and this causes it to be very uncomfortable,” Ashu said, adding that he was only two years when the case slapped his father.
Salauddin said he had to bear substantial legal costs when he just got around Rs 20,000 a month.
He also has the responsibility to feed a family of five people, in addition to spending his medicines.
Ending the long-retractable trial, the court in the order order on November 9 said, “Now that prosecution cannot prove the accusation of the defendant, Mohd Salamuddin was given the benefit of doubts and, therefore, was burdened by all charges made against it under ACT ACT.”
