    Judegement

    Summary The court acquitted the accused Vikrambhai Valjyabhai under the Prohibition Act Section 65(A)(A) on charges of possessing country-made liquor worth ₹800. The court found that the prosecution failed to establish its case beyond reasonable doubt, particularly because the panchas (witnesses) did not substantiate the seizure panchnama, no independent witnesses corroborated the evidence, and a crucial FSL certificate confirming the seized material was liquor was not produced. The court relied on Gujarat High Court precedents holding that conviction cannot be based solely on police testimony without corroborating independent evidence. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
