The Himachal Pradesh High Court held that torn clothes alone cannot prove an offence under Section 324 IPC (voluntarily causing hurt with a weapon). The Court said that medical evidence, weapon recovery, and credible testimony are essential to prove the nature of injuries. It acquitted the accused, holding that suspicion cannot replace legal proof.
