State of Maharashtra vs Sumitra Vijay Rajput — 294/2025

The Judicial Magistrate First Class, Jalgaon Jamod, discharged accused Sumitra in a prosecution under Section 65-e of the Bombay Prohibition Act, citing the accused's prolonged absence and the prosecution's failure to secure his presence despite multiple summons and bail warrants. The court stopped proceedings under Section 281 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita due to the case's indefinite pendency and lack of substantive progress, and ordered the seized 12 liters of hand-made liquor to be disposed by the Excise Department after the appeal period expires.
