Copy of Judgment

The court acquitted defendant Dattatraya Rangrao Powar of charges under the Maharashtra Prohibition Act Section 65(E) for allegedly possessing and selling prohibited alcohol. The court found that the prosecution failed to establish beyond reasonable doubt that the seized bottles were actually prohibited liquor or that the defendant possessed them for sale, as the chemical analysis report was not properly authenticated and prosecution witnesses provided inconsistent testimony. The defendant was acquitted under CrPC Section 255(1) and ordered to be released on bail. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
