    Summary The Jetpur First Class Judicial Magistrate Court acquitted the accused of charges under Gujarat Prohibition Act Section 65(A)(A) for allegedly possessing 5 liters of illicit liquor valued at Rs. 1,000 on 24/09/2025. The court found that the prosecution failed to conclusively prove possession, as no independent witness statement corroborated the seizure, no FSL certificate confirmed the substance was liquor, and the accused's body search was not documented. The court granted benefit of doubt to the accused due to insufficient evidence. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
