Case Summary: Criminal Case 187/2026 Court Decision: The Judicial Magistrate First Class, Dhole acquitted defendant Champaben W/O Mansukhbhai Vaghela of charges under the Gujarat Prohibition Act Section 65(A)(A) on March 16, 2026. The court found that the prosecution failed to establish sufficient evidence proving the alleged illegal possession of 2 liters of liquor without permit on September 14, 2025. Key Reasoning: The court determined that the lone witness (a panch/magistrate witness) provided testimony only regarding signing the panchnama (official document) but offered no substantive evidence supporting the case. Additionally, the prosecution failed to examine independent police witnesses who could corroborate the allegations, rendering the case doubtful and unproven beyond reasonable doubt under criminal procedure standards. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
