Final Orders / Judgements
Court Decision Summary The Kolhapur First Class Magistrate's Court acquitted accused Shashikant Shivajirav Ghodke and Amit Vilas Guru of charges under the Mumbai Gambling Prohibition Act, 1887 (Section 12-A) due to insufficient evidence. The prosecution failed to prove the illegal gambling allegations beyond reasonable doubt, as the sole prosecution witness could not substantiate the charges and critical evidence (seizure memo) remained unproven in court. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
