JUDEGEMENT

CASE SUMMARY The Jamnagar First Class Judicial Magistrate court acquitted accused Lakhmanbhai Dhanabhai Ulva of charges under the Prohibition Act Section 65(A)(A) due to insufficient evidence. While police witnesses testified to recovering 15 liters of country liquor (valued ₹3,000) and a Honda motorcycle (₹20,000) from the accused during a May 15, 2025 patrol, the court found the panchnama (seizure record) unverified by independent witnesses and no FSL report confirming the seized material was prohibited alcohol, rendering the prosecution's case unproven beyond reasonable doubt. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
