Mumbai man acquitted in MCOCA chain-snatching case as court cites identity failure
A 57-year-old man, accused of chain snatching and facing stringent MCOCA charges, has been acquitted by a Thane court. The prosecution failed to establish his identity, with the complainant unable to identify him. Crucial procedural lapses, including the absence of a Test Identification parade, led to the acquittal. The court also found the recovery of alleged stolen items unreliable.
