    Case Summary: 836/2026 The court acquitted the accused, Ramu Dudhabhai Parmar, of charges under Gujarat Police Act Section 135 (carrying a weapon in public in violation of a weapons ban proclamation). The prosecution failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the accused carried a plastic-handled knife worth ₹20 on December 24, 2025. Key weaknesses included: panchas (witnesses) who signed the seizure document retracted their testimony and denied witnessing the actual incident; no independent witnesses corroborated police claims; and only police statements supported the case without neutral corroboration. The court found reasonable doubt about the accused's arrest and recovery of the weapon, ruling that benefit of doubt must favor the accused. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
