    Case Summary: 153/2026 The court acquitted defendant Vasim Husainbhai Kharaiya of charges under the Prohibition Act, finding the prosecution failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the seized liquor was in his conscious possession. The court noted that independent panch witnesses did not corroborate the prosecution's case, proper seizure procedures under Gujarat Prohibition Rules 2012 were not followed, and the investigation procedure was procedurally deficient. The defendant was discharged and ordered released on existing bail of Rs. 10,000. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
