Summary: Case 477/2025 - State of Maharashtra v. Shyam Kalu Rathod The court acquitted respondent Shyam Kalu Rathod of charges under Section 65(E) of the Mumbai Prohibition Act. The prosecution failed to establish its case due to insufficient evidence: while the panchnama (seizure record) was acknowledged as valid, the police could not clearly demonstrate that the seized liquor bottles were recovered from the respondent's possession, and no independent witnesses or chemical analysis reports were produced to corroborate the allegations. Consequently, the court found the charges unproven and discharged the accused. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
