    The Gujarat High Court acquitted the accused in an illegal liquor case, finding that the prosecution failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt. The court held that conviction cannot rest solely on police testimony without independent witness corroboration, and the prosecution did not adequately prove the liquor bottles belonged to the accused or establish their authenticity under the Prohibition Act.
