Summary of Case 372/2024 The State of Maharashtra v. Deepa Datta Shelte (Criminal Case 372/2024) Court Decision: The court acquitted the accused, Deepa Datta Shelte, of charges under Maharashtra Prohibition Act Section 65(E) for illegal liquor sale. The court found insufficient evidence that the 45 sealed plastic bottles of 180ml containing alcohol bearing the "Sharbal" brand discovered at the accused's residence were in her possession for sale, as required to establish the offense. Key Reasoning: Although alcohol bottles were found, the prosecution failed to conclusively prove the accused's intent to sell them illegally. The court noted evidentiary gaps and directed confiscation of the liquor as per law while ordering the accused's complete acquittal and release of personal properties.
