    JudgmentView PDF

    Case Summary: C.C. 230/2021 The court acquitted both accused persons of charges under Sections 32 and 34 of the Karnataka Excise Act for allegedly selling liquor sachets without license. The court found critical procedural violations: police conducted the search, seizure, and panchanama (inventory) before registering the FIR, violating Sections 154 of Cr.P.C. and 54 of the Karnataka Excise Act, and failed to obtain a search warrant as mandated by law. Additionally, key panch witnesses (required for seizure) turned hostile and denied the panchanama occurred, and no sample link was established between seized items and court exhibits, rendering the evidence unreliable and the prosecution's case fatally weakened. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
