Final Orders / Judgements
CASE SUMMARY: 46/2026 The Judicial Magistrate Court at Gadhada acquitted the respondent, Jigneshbhai Bucho Pachabhai Rathod, of charges under the Gujarat Prohibition Act Section 65(a)(a) and Indian Penal Code Section 230, finding insufficient evidence to prove the case beyond reasonable doubt. The court determined that while police recovered contraband liquor valued at Rs. 3,000 during a raid on June 24, 2025, critical procedural irregularities—including the absence of independent witnesses' supporting statements and unverifiable seizure documentation—created reasonable doubt regarding the accused's guilt. The court emphasized that the prosecution bore the burden of proving guilt conclusively, and the defects in evidence collection and witness examination rendered the case unproven. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
