Court Acquits Men in Unlawful Religious Conversion Case

A local court acquitted two men accused of unlawful religious conversion and directed action against the police personnel involved. The case involved accusations of attempting to convert people to Christianity. The court found no concrete evidence against the accused, leading to their acquittal.

In a significant ruling, a local court has acquitted two men accused of unlawful religious conversion while simultaneously directing action against the investigating officers involved.

The court's decision, delivered by Additional District and Sessions Judge Gyanendra Tripathi on July 30, exonerated Abhishek Gupta and Kundan Lal due to insufficient evidence.

This ruling follows a complaint made by a right-wing group member that led to their arrest last year. The court's directive now places scrutiny on the police personnel who filed the charges.
