Thane: The Thane sessions court has acquitted three men, Sahablal Amarnath Chauhan (48), Vijay Ramavaidh (53) and Sanjay Ramavaidh (51) accused of allegedly murdering a woman and her four minor children nearly 31 years ago, citing failure by the prosecution to prove the case.
Prosecution Failed to Establish Circumstantial Evidence
The court in its orders observed that the prosecution could not establish a complete chain of circumstantial evidence linking the accused to the crime.
Incident Dates Back to 1994
The case dates back to November 16, 1994, when Rajnarayan Shivcharan Prajapati’s wife and four children were found murdered inside their locked home at Marwad Chawl in Penkarpada, Kashimira.
