Driver Acquitted After 2.5 Years in Prison for Fatal Accident

February 4, 2026

The Court of Appeals acquitted a driver who had been convicted for a fatal road accident after he had already served 2.5 years in prison. The case involved an accident in August 2019, where one driver lost his life and several passengers were injured. The judge noted that there was insufficient evidence for the driver’s guilt. The court ruled that the testimonies did not clearly demonstrate reckless or dangerous driving. Therefore, the decision to acquit the convicted driver was made due to a lack of compelling evidence.
