    Summary The Gujarat High Court acquitted the accused of charges under the Gujarat Prohibition Act Section 65(A) for illegal possession of country-made liquor, finding insufficient evidence and lack of credible independent witnesses to corroborate the prosecution's case. The court held that the prosecution failed to discharge its burden of proof beyond reasonable doubt, as the witnesses presented lacked impartiality and the circumstantial evidence was weak. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
