Govt. of Gujarat vs MINABEN W O RAJUBHAI KESHUBHAI CHADMIYA Advocate - H M VAJA — 1190/2025

Court Decision Summary The Sutrapar­ada First Class Magistrate Court acquitted accused Minaben (W/O Rajubhai Keshubhai Chadmiya) of charges under the Gujarat Prohibition Act, Section 65(A) for alleged illegal possession of 3 liters of alcohol. The court found that the prosecution failed to establish its case beyond reasonable doubt, particularly noting that the panchas (witnesses) did not support the prosecution's claims, crucial evidence from technical experts (FSL) was absent, and the seizure procedure lacked proper documentation and independent witness corroboration. Applying Supreme Court precedent, the court gave the accused the benefit of doubt and discharged her. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
