    Case Summary The court acquitted the accused Ashok Gajanan Walvekar of charges under the Maharashtra Prohibition Act, Section 65(E), finding insufficient evidence that the prosecution proved the case beyond reasonable doubt. While the court acknowledged that illicit liquor bottles were recovered, it noted critical gaps in the prosecution's evidence, including failure to properly identify the police vehicle used and lack of credible independent witness testimony regarding the accused's possession and intent to sell the contraband liquor. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
