Judegement
Case Summary: C.C.No.113/2026 Court Decision: The accused Prakashbhai Jasvantbhai Andhrojiya was acquitted of charges under the Gujarat Prohibition Act, Section 65 AA for alleged illegal possession of 2 liters of country liquor worth Rs. 400. The court found reasonable doubt in the prosecution's case due to insufficient corroborating evidence, lack of independent witnesses, failure of witnesses panchas to support the seizure panchnama, and absence of FSL (Forensic Science Lab) reports confirming the seized substance. Key Reasoning: The prosecution failed to establish conscious possession of the liquor by the accused beyond reasonable doubt, with critical gaps in investigation procedure and witness testimony contradicting the seizure narrative. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
