THE STATE OF GUJARAT vs PRADIPBHAI VALABHAI VAGHELA Advocate - N M KHASIYA — 511/2025

Court Decision Summary The Dholera Judicial Magistrate Court acquitted both accused persons (Pradipbhai Valabhai Wadhela and Mobubhai Madhubhai Vedva) of charges under the Prohibition Act Section 65(A)(I) and 81, citing insufficient evidence. The court found critical gaps in the prosecution's case: absence of FSL (Forensic Science Laboratory) reports confirming the seized liquor, lack of independent witness corroboration of the raid, failure to recover contraband directly from the accused, and procedural irregularities in seizure documentation. The accused benefited from the doubt and were discharged. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
