    Copy of Judgment

    Case Summary: State of Maharashtra v. Avinash Arjun Meshram (318/2024) The court acquitted defendant Avinash Arjun Meshram of charges under the Maharashtra Liquor Prohibition Act, 1949. The prosecution alleged that 10 bottles of liquor (90ml each) were recovered from the defendant's residence, but the court found that the prosecution failed to establish the charge beyond reasonable doubt due to insufficient evidence regarding the chain of custody, lack of proper sealing procedures for the seized materials, and absence of credible witness testimony supporting the seizure. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
