State Excise Department- Divisional 1 vs Nitin Walmik Kohale — 2060/2024

The Judicial Magistrate discharged the accused Nitin under Section 258 of the CrPC in a Maharashtra Prohibition Act case, finding that the prosecution failed to file the required Chemical Analysis (C.A.) report to establish the nature of the seized article, making it impossible to proceed fairly. The court stopped proceedings due to prolonged pendency and ordered recall of the arrest warrant, with seized liquor to be sent to the Excise Department for disposal and any seized vehicle to be returned to its owner after the appeal period. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
