Adnan murder case: Police messed up?

A Mumbai court has today acquitted four men accused of kidnapping and murdering Mumbai teenager Adnan Patrawala in 2007, who they had allegedly met via social networking site Orkut. The court, while delivering the judgment, said that the police had failed to tie-up critical pieces of the narrative: The evidence, both forensic and circumstantial, was assembled so loosely that they ended up reducing each other rather than form a cohesive thread against the accused.
