    Summary The Vadgam Judicial Magistrate acquitted the accused Manirshi Dhiraji under the Gujarat Prohibition Act Section 65(a), holding that the prosecution failed to prove the charges beyond reasonable doubt. The court found that independent panch witnesses did not corroborate the prosecution's case regarding seizure of contraband liquor, and relying solely on police testimony without supporting evidence from neutral witnesses was insufficient to establish guilt in prohibition cases. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
