    Summary The Jetpur Judicial Magistrate Court acquitted the defendant of charges under the Gujarat Prohibition Act, Sections 65(a)(a) and 116(b), finding that the prosecution failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that English liquor bottles (valued at ₹17,500) were in the defendant's direct possession. The court emphasized that the independent witnesses (panchas) did not corroborate the case, the investigating officer provided no independent statements, and critical details like the seal authenticity on bottles remained unestablished, warranting acquittal under benefit of doubt.
