JudegementView PDF

Case Summary: C.C.No. 36/2026 The court acquitted accused Rameshbhai Meghajibhai Rathod of charges under the Gujarat Prohibition Act Section 65(A)(A) for alleged possession and sale of liquor. The court found that while the investigating officers claimed to have seized liquor materials from the accused's possession with witnesses (panchas) present, the panchas' testimony did not corroborate the seizure details. The court held that without the witnesses confirming the factual circumstances of the seizure, the prosecution failed to establish exclusive and conscious possession of the prohibited items, and therefore could not prove the case beyond reasonable doubt. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
