Copy of Judgment

Summary of Case 678/2024 The court acquitted Vasant Maruti Waydande of charges under Section 65(e) of the Maharashtra Prohibition Act for allegedly possessing 9 liters of handmade country liquor without valid license. The prosecution failed to prove the offense primarily due to absence of a chemical analysis report, which is determinant in prohibition cases, and lack of corroboration from independent witnesses—the panch witness even denied the incident. The seized liquor will be disposed by the State Excise Office, Kolhapur. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
