Summary of Case 253/2026 The Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Palitana, acquitted the accused Gitaben Dulabhai Hirabhai Vaghela of charges under Section 65(a) of the Gujarat Prohibition Act, 1949. The court found that the State failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that prohibited liquor was recovered from the accused without a valid permit, as the panchnama (seizure record) lacked credible corroboration and an FSL report was absent to confirm the seized material's nature. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
