Order on Exhibit

The court acquitted the accused of liquor possession charges under section 65(E) of the Maharashtra Prohibition Act 1949 due to the prosecution's failure to file the mandatory chemical analysis report despite over 14 months passing since the charge-sheet was filed. The proceedings were stopped under section 281 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, as the case could not proceed without this critical evidence. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
