Order

Summary: The petition filed by K. Sudhakaran, a general merchant, seeking discharge from charges under the Food Safety and Standards Act, 2006 (Sections 59(1) r/w 3(1)(zz)(v) and (vii)) was dismissed. The court found that the accused's claims—that he did not sell or store the jaggery for sale, that liability rests with the manufacturer, and that procedural violations occurred—constituted disputed questions of fact requiring evidence at trial, and were insufficient to establish that the charges were groundless. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
