    Judegement

    Case 646/2026 - Summary Court Decision: The court acquitted the accused, Bhavanaben W/O Shaileshbhai Ramjibhai Dedaniya, of charges under the Gujarat Prohibition Act Section 65(A)(A) for illegal possession of 0.5 liters of country liquor valued at Rs. 1000. The prosecution failed to prove the case beyond reasonable doubt, as the panchnama (seizure document) was not adequately corroborated by witness testimony and key evidentiary gaps remained, particularly the absence of independent witnesses and FSL reports confirming the substance was alcohol. Applying the principle that benefit of doubt must go to the accused, the court granted acquittal. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
