    Summary The court acquitted accused Premsinh Gamersinh Vaghela of charges under the Prohibition Act (Sections 65(a)(a) and 116(b)) for alleged possession of foreign liquor bottles. The court found that the prosecution failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the seized bottles were in the accused's conscious possession, noting critical gaps in evidence including lack of independent witnesses, incomplete panchnama procedures, and missing corroborating documentation from manufacturers and authorities. The court ruled that reasonable doubt favors the accused's acquittal. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
