    Summary of Court Decision The Gujarat High Court, in Criminal Revision Application No. 27/2025, quashed the order passed by the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Kapadvanj, which had directed seizure of a vehicle under the Prohibition Act. The court found that the lower court's order violated the Gujarat Prohibition (Liquor Samples and Determination of Quantity Seized Liquor) Rules, 2012, which mandate that seized liquor exceeding 20 liters cannot be finally confiscated until a conclusive judgment is delivered. Since the final judgment had not been rendered in the underlying criminal case, the seizure order was premature and legally unjustified, prompting the court to nullify it. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
