State of Gujarat vs SURESHBHAI NAGJIBHAI PARMAR Advocate - A B JOSHI — 1755/2025

Case Summary: State of Gujarat v. Sureshbhai Nagjibhai Parmar The court acquitted the accused Sureshbhai Nagjibhai Parmar of charges under the Bombay Prohibition Act 1949, Section 65(B,C,D,E,F). The court found that the prosecution failed to establish its case beyond reasonable doubt, particularly because the panchnama (seizure record) was not adequately supported by independent witness testimony and no FSL report confirmed the seized materials were illicit alcohol. Applying established judicial principles, the court held that when critical evidence like the panchnama remains unproven and independent witnesses are unavailable, the accused deserves the benefit of doubt.
