    The court acquitted the respondent Shardaben Rakeshbhai Ramanbhai Vasava of charges under the Gujarat Prohibition Act Section 65(AA) for illegal liquor sale, finding insufficient and unreliable evidence. The court determined that the panchnama (official record) was defective as the witnesses were all police officers rather than independent citizens, and critical evidence like laboratory testing reports for the seized liquid were not produced, making it impossible to establish the charges beyond reasonable doubt. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
