Case Summary: 795/2022 Court Decision: The First Class Magistrate Court, Akkalkuva (Nandurbar District) acquitted accused Virji Hanya Vasave under Maharashtra Prohibition Act Section 65(E) on May 15, 2026, finding insufficient evidence to prove the charges. Key Reasoning: The court determined that the prosecution failed to establish its case through credible evidence. The two panch witnesses testified they were not present during the search operation, no panchnama (search memo) was conducted in their presence, and the prosecution presented no substantive proof to support the allegation that the accused was illegally possessing and selling 70 liters of country liquor on September 8, 2022. Additionally, unexplained delays in chemical analysis and gaps in evidence custody documentation further weakened the prosecution's case, resulting in the accused's acquittal and bail cancellation. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
