    Summary of Court Decision The First Class Judicial Magistrate Court in Tharad acquitted accused Prakashbhai Pradhanji Thakor of charges under the Prohibition Act Sections 65(A)(A) and 116(B) for allegedly possessing 14 bottles of foreign liquor worth ₹2,172. The court found that the prosecution failed to prove the case beyond reasonable doubt, noting critical evidentiary gaps including absence of independent witnesses, lack of proper documentation of the panchnama (seizure memo), and failure to establish the accused's conscious possession of the contraband material. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
