Copy of JudgmentView PDF

Summary The court acquitted the accused, Suvarna Shailesh Polekar, of charges under the Maharashtra Excise Act, Section 65(E) for allegedly possessing and selling 25 liters of illicit liquor without permission. The court found that the prosecution failed to prove the case beyond reasonable doubt, as the key witnesses did not corroborate the prosecution's claims and no chemical analysis report was submitted to confirm the seized substance was actually liquor. Consequently, the accused was declared not guilty, her bail bond was cancelled, and the seized material was ordered to be disposed of according to regulations. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
