Copy of Judgment

Summary The court acquitted the accused, Abhinash Narayana Chavhan, of charges under Section 65(E) of the Maharashtra Prohibition Act. The court found that while illicit liquor was seized, the prosecution failed to produce the chemical analysis report proving the seized material was alcohol, making the charges unproven beyond reasonable doubt. The accused was acquitted and the seized contraband was ordered destroyed after appeal periods lapsed. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
