If the trial has been started and the evidence is being recorded, if court finds you were also in the incident or offence, according the evidence. It may summon you as accused. But it has no impact on your future, unless you are proved guilty by court.

Dear Mr. Sandeep,

There is a recent judgment of Devision Bench of Delhi High Court, wherein it was held that a person can not be denied for appointment in Government Department only on the basis that he or she has been involved in a criminal case wherein he or she has been convicted or acquitted.

You go through the judgment and do not worry as you mentioned hereinabove is a minor offence and calling of you as an accused wud have no effect on your future.

Thanks
