State of Maharashtra vs Sharad Shekhar Rapartiwar — 15271/2025

The Nagpur court discharged the accused in a decades-old tobacco law violation case (Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products Act, Section 4) due to prolonged pendency and the prosecution's failure to secure the accused's presence despite adequate opportunities. The court halted further proceedings under Section 281 BNSS 2023, discharged the accused, cancelled bail bonds, and closed the case, finding no utility in continuing the matter indefinitely given the minor nature of the offense.
