CPI(M) leader Sakkeer Hussain and three others accused in the sensational Kalamassery abduction case were acquitted as all the witnesses including the de facto complainant in the case turned hostile.

Acquitting all the accused, Jomy Anu Issac, the Judicial First Class Magistrate 6, Ernakulam, concluded that the prosecution failed to prove the case against the accused beyond reasonable doubt.

All the witnesses to the occurrence of the offences alleged against the accused including the complainant Juby Poulose, a businessman, turned hostile to the prosecution. There is absolutely no evidence to prove the prosecution case, the court concluded.
