The State of Maharashtra vs Amol Abhimanyu Gaikwad — 1211/2024

Case Summary: State v. Amol Abhimanyu Gaikwad (1211/2024) The Judicial Magistrate First Class, Akkalkot, dismissed the case against accused Amol Gaikwad for illegal liquor possession under Section 65(e) of the Maharashtra Prohibition Act. Despite multiple summons issued by Akkalkot North Police Station (charge sheet filed 19.12.2024), the prosecution failed to secure the accused's presence for over one year, prompting the court to find continued proceedings would constitute an abuse of process. The court consequently stopped proceedings under Section 258 of Cr.P.C., cancelled the accused's personal recognizance bonds, and ordered disposal of the seized 18-liter illicit liquor after the appeal period expires.
