    Court Decision Summary The Sutrapur First Class Judicial Magistrate Court acquitted accused Jayeshbhai Babubhai Solanki of charges under the Gujarat Prohibition Act, Section 65(A), finding insufficient evidence to prove the case beyond reasonable doubt. The court reasoned that while contraband alcohol was allegedly recovered from the accused's possession, the prosecution failed to establish crucial facts, particularly regarding the credibility of witnesses (panchas) and the proper chain of custody, citing absence of technical expert evidence and proper seizure documentation. Applying established High Court precedents on circumstantial evidence standards in prohibition cases, the court granted the benefit of doubt to the accused. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
