Case Summary: 437/2025 Court Decision: The accused, Krushnkant Pandhariath Sampatwar, was acquitted and discharged under the Maharashtra Prohibition Act, Section 65(E). The court found the prosecution failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt. Key Reasoning: The prosecution's sole witness (Kishan Vitthol Sonmankar) contradicted the seizure panchnama and denied the allegations. No chemical examination report was submitted, no investigating officer testified, and no other eyewitnesses corroborated the charge that the accused possessed 13 bottles of illicit liquor for illegal sale. Due to insufficient evidence and lack of corroboration, the court held the prosecution unable to establish the charges. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
