Government of Gujarat vs KISHORBHAI AAPABHAI CHOVASIYA Advocate - B R Rathod — 108/2026

Summary The court acquitted the defendant Kishorabhdi Apaabhdi Chovsiya of charges under Section 223 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita 2023 (disobedience of government orders). The judge found that the prosecution failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the defendant violated the district magistrate's public notice by not installing CCTV cameras at his scrap yard ("Momaye Ma"). The court determined the prosecution's witnesses and evidence were insufficient to establish the charge, and therefore acquitted the defendant in absentia on April 21, 2026.
