Judegement
Summary The court acquitted defendant Sonalben of charges under the Gujarat Prohibition Act, Section 65(A), finding the prosecution failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt. The judge cited inadequate witness testimony from the panchas (witnesses), lack of proper evidence linking the seized alcohol directly to the accused, and investigative irregularities. Applying precedent from Gujarat High Court judgments, the court granted the accused the benefit of doubt as required under criminal jurisprudence and ordered her release with Rs. 5,000 bail forfeiture. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
