Case Summary: In FIR No. 979/2024, State v. Suresh Hindurav Samudre, a drunk-driving case where the accused tested positive (550.0/100 on breathalyzer) on December 31, 2023, the court examined the credibility of the breath analyzer evidence and police procedures. The court found significant defects in the evidence collection process, including lack of proper documentation, videography, and separate photographs, and rejected the prosecution's breathalyzer report as unreliable. The case was dismissed on April 7, 2026, with the court accepting the defense's cross-examination that undermined the prosecution's evidence integrity.
