一个德里法院在2006年由前副总督V.K.提起的刑事诽谤案中宣告活动家Medha Patkar无罪。 A Delhi court has acquitted activist Medha Patkar in a 2006 criminal defamation case filed by former Lieutenant Governor V.K. Saxena裁定,检方未能确凿无疑地证明她在电视采访中作了据称的诽谤性陈述。 Saxena, ruling the prosecution failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that she made the alleged defamatory statements during a televised interview. 法院强调指出,没有原始录像或录音、没有目击证人、证据前后不一致,仅提供了简短、未经核实的短片。 The court highlighted the absence of original video or audio recordings, lack of eyewitnesses, and inconsistencies in the evidence, noting only a short, unverified clip was presented. 拉格夫·夏尔马一等司法治安法官于2026年1月24日作出的裁决突出表明,诽谤案件需要有可信的证据。 The verdict, delivered on January 24, 2026, by Judicial Magistrate First Class Raghav Sharma, underscores the need for credible evidence in defamation cases. 无罪开释并不影响2001年的一个单独案件,Patkar先前因将Saxena称为“懦夫”而被定罪,尽管最高法院最近修改了该定罪。 The acquittal does not affect a separate 2001 case where Patkar was previously convicted for calling Saxena a “coward,” though that conviction was recently modified by the Supreme Court.
