The court found that the prosecution's case was based entirely on circumstantial evidence, with no direct evidence linking the accused to the deceased's fatal injury. The evidence from the accused's mother (PW5) and other witnesses indicated that the deceased was unwell and arrangements were made to take her to hospital, during which she died. The post mortem report established the cause of death as a head injury from a blunt object, but there was no evidence to show the accused inflicted this injury. The court accepted the explanation that the deceased could have sustained the injury accidentally, as described by PW5. The prosecution failed to establish intent or direct involvement by the accused. Consequently, the court held that the prosecution had not proved its case beyond reasonable doubt and acquitted the accused.
