    Case Summary: Criminal Case 1045/2025 Court Decision: The court acquitted defendant Gopalbhai Rasubhai Vaghela of charges under the Gujarat Prohibition Act, Section 65(A). The prosecution failed to establish sufficient evidence to prove the case beyond reasonable doubt. Key Reasoning: Although prohibited liquor (3 liters valued at Rs. 600) was allegedly seized from the accused's possession on 25/04/2025, the court found critical evidentiary gaps. The sole witness (Panch Farukbhai Rajakbhai Dosani) only testified about signing the seizure memo but provided no substantive evidence supporting the prosecution's case. The absence of independent witnesses and police testimony further weakened the prosecution's evidence, creating reasonable doubt about the accused's guilt. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
