    Summary The Vadgam Judicial Magistrate Court acquitted the accused Lalabhai Lavjibhai Kankodia of charges under Section 65(A) of the Gujarat Prohibition Act, finding that the prosecution failed to prove the offense beyond reasonable doubt. The court held that the independent panch witnesses did not corroborate the prosecution's case, and reliance on police testimony alone was insufficient to establish the alleged illegal possession and sale of liquor.
