The State of Maharashtra vs Satling Kalyani Kumbhar — 150/2024

Case 150/2024 Summary: The court dismissed proceedings against accused Shantling Kalyani Kumbhar for an alleged violation under Section 65(e) of the Maharashtra Prohibition Act after the prosecution repeatedly failed to secure the accused's presence despite multiple summons over more than one year. The Judicial Magistrate found that continuing to keep the case pending would constitute an abuse of process and accordingly stopped the proceeding under Section 258 of Cr.P.C., cancelling the accused's P.R. bonds and directing disposal of the 100 seized bottles of Santra liquor according to law.
