Case Summary: Criminal Case 33/2026 Court: Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Porbandar, Gujarat Petitioner: State of Gujarat Respondent/Accused: Ramesh Meramanbhai Godhaniya Charge: Violation of Gujarat Police Act, Section 135 (carrying weapon without permit in public area, violating weapons prohibition order) Judgment (Delivered 12 May 2026): The accused was acquitted. The court found that the prosecution failed to establish the essential elements of the crime beyond reasonable doubt. Although a knife was allegedly recovered from the accused on 27 November 2025, the court noted serious evidentiary gaps: the panchas (official witnesses) contradicted the complainant's narrative, independent corroboration was lacking, and police witnesses had vested interests. The court held that mere recovery without proof of violation of the weapons ban order was insufficient for conviction. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
