Would this acquittal be considered honorable for my sub-inspector application?
I was acquitted in cases under Section 307 (attempt to murder) and the Arms Act. The person who suffered a gunshot injury and is also a witness never mentioned my name in court. He said one bullet was fired from the front, and he could not identify the person. The other person who filed the FIR turned hostile. Would this be considered an honorable acquittal or not? I am preparing for the position of a sub-inspector.
Your acquittal appears to be based on a lack of evidence, as the injured witness did not name you, and the complainant turned hostile. However, for a sub-inspector application, an "honorable acquittal" generally means being cleared of charges with a finding that the case was false or baseless. Since your acquittal was due to insufficient evidence rather than a clear declaration of innocence, it may not be considered "honourable" in strict legal terms. You should check your state's police recruitment rules or consult a legal expert to confirm eligibility.
Since the victim did not name you and the FIR complainant changed their statement, the court acquitted you due to a lack of evidence. However, an "honourable acquittal" means the court clearly states you were not guilty, not just that there was no proof. For your sub-inspector application, the police may still check your case history, so you should get a copy of the judgment to see how the court ruled. If unsure, consult a lawyer to confirm your status.
sir, As you are aquitted you can apply for any post, But if the prosecution went on appeal you have to wait.
Your acquittal appears to be based on a lack of evidence and witnesses not identifying you, which may be considered a clean acquittal rather than an honorable acquittal (which typically implies false implication). However, for government job eligibility, especially for a sub-inspector position, the recruitment board may still assess the case details. It’s advisable to check the specific police recruitment rules and seek legal clarification if needed.
Your acquittal in cases under Section 307 and the Arms Act, supported by hostile witnesses and lack of identification, can be considered an honorable acquittal. It indicates the prosecution failed to prove its case. This should not affect your eligibility for the sub-inspector role, but verify the recruitment criteria with authorities to confirm no disqualifying factors are involved.
