    Order on ExhibitView PDF

    The court acquitted the accused of liquor possession charges under section 65(E) of the Maharashtra Prohibition Act 1949 by stopping proceedings under section 281 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023. The critical reason was that despite over 16 months passing since the charge-sheet was filed on 06.11.2024, the prosecution failed to submit the essential chemical analysis report proving the substance seized was liquor, making conviction impossible. Police records were retained for potential case reopening under applicable provisions. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
