    Judegement

    Court Decision Summary The 3rd Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate, Padra acquitted the accused under the Prohibition Act Section 65(a)(a) due to insufficient evidence. The prosecution failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that the seized alcohol was found in the accused's possession, as the seizure panchnama lacked corroboration from independent witnesses and no FSL (Forensic Science Laboratory) report was produced to confirm the seized material's authenticity.
