    Summary The First Class Judicial Magistrate Court in Murud acquitted defendant Raghunath Vithya Waghmmare of charges under the Maharashtra Prohibition Act, 1949, Section 65(E), for allegedly possessing 20 liters of illegal country liquor. The court found that the prosecution failed to provide chemical analysis reports of the seized liquor and could not establish reliable evidence through independent witnesses, making it impossible to prove the offense beyond reasonable doubt. The court ordered the seized alcohol to be handed over to the State Excise Department after the custody period expires.
