    Judegement

    Court Decision Summary The court acquitted the accused under Indian Penal Code Section 271 (disobedience of quarantine rules) and Gujarat Prohibition Act, 1949 Section 65. The judgment found that while illicit liquor was recovered from the accused's residence during a police raid, the prosecution failed to establish a legally valid case due to lack of proper witness testimony, deficient panch (witness) documentation, and absence of corroborating evidence to prove the offense beyond reasonable doubt.
