Government of Gujarat vs PRATAPBHAI ABHABHAI PAGI Advocate - D S PATEL — 232/2026

Summary The court acquitted the accused under Section 65 of the Gujarat Prohibition Act, 1949, finding insufficient evidence that the accused possessed country liquor without a valid permit at their residence. The court determined that the prosecution failed to establish a credible case, as the sole witness (a police witness) could not be corroborated and critical procedural requirements regarding witness examination were not properly fulfilled, making the conviction unreliable.
