    Summary The court acquitted accused Sanjay Vamnarao Lambat of charges under the Maharashtra Liquor Prohibition Act, Section 65(E), finding that the prosecution failed to prove beyond reasonable doubt that 12 bottles of illicit liquor were in his possession. The court noted critical deficiencies in the prosecution's case, including reliance on a single witness whose testimony was unreliable, absence of independent corroborating witnesses, and lack of proper chemical examination reports, making it impossible to establish that the seized material was actually illicit liquor. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
