    Summary This is a Criminal Case (C.C. No. 194/2026) under the Gujarat Prohibition Act, 1949, Section 65. The court acquitted the accused of charges related to unauthorized possession of Indian liquor (0.3 liters valued at ₹600) found during a police raid at the accused's residence, as the prosecution failed to establish sufficient evidence and proper procedure regarding witness examination and documentary proof. The court ruled that the defects in the investigation and the lack of credible corroborating evidence warranted acquittal under Indian Penal Code Section 271. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
