    Summary of Case 145/2026 The court acquitted the respondent Dixit Urfe Bhago Amitbhai Thakor of charges under Gujarat Prohibition Act §65(a)(a), §116(b) for illegal possession of foreign liquor (McDowells whisky). The court found the prosecution failed to establish its case beyond reasonable doubt, as key prosecution witnesses did not adequately support the charges and the seizure procedure was questionable. The court held that exclusive and conscious possession of contraband could not be proven, warranting acquittal.
