Third Additional District and Sessions Court (PCR), Madurai, acquitted J. Shanmugaraja, an Assistant Professor of Madurai Kamaraj University, who was accused of abusing a Scheduled Caste student by using her caste name. Judge K. Dhamodharan held that there was absolutely no evidence available on record to connect the accused with the alleged commission of the offence. The court said the prosecution had miserably failed to prove its case beyond all reasonable doubt and acquitted the Assistant Professor.
