Govt. of Gujarat vs shantiben boghabhai vansh Advocate - V D KAMLIYA — 1203/2025

Summary The Sutrapar First Class Judicial Magistrate Court acquitted Shantiben Mandanbhai Boghabhai of charges under the Gujarat Prohibition Act Section 65(a) for illegally possessing 15 liters of country liquor. The court found that while prohibited alcohol was recovered from the accused's possession on 29 November 2025, the prosecution failed to establish the case beyond reasonable doubt due to insufficient witness corroboration, lack of technical evidence (FSL report), and procedural irregularities in the investigation, citing relevant Supreme Court precedents on burden of proof in such cases.
