Case Summary: CC 43/2025 Court: Judicial Magistrate Court, Sendamangalam Judgment Date: 01.07.2026 Charge: Illegal possession and sale of alcohol under Tamil Nadu Prohibition Act (TNP Act) sections 4(1)(C) r/w 4(1)(a), 1937 Accused: Duraisamy (Palanigounder), approximately 60 years old Key Facts: On 15.09.2024, police found the accused near his residence with liquor bottles and recovered approximately 30 bottles of Express Brandy (180 ML) hidden near his house. The accused allegedly confessed to purchasing alcohol at reduced official rates and reselling it at higher prices illegally. Court's Decision: The court acquitted the accused and gave him the benefit of doubt under BNSS Section 271(1). The prosecution failed to prove the charges beyond reasonable doubt. Key deficiencies included: the accused's confession couldn't be used against him without corroborating evidence; no chemical analysis confirmed the bottles contained alcohol; witnesses testified only about recovery procedures, not about actual sales; and the investigation lacked proper procedure with only police witnesses and no civilian corroboration. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
