Case 380/2025 Summary: The Sendamangalam Judicial Magistrate acquitted Selvam of illegal liquor trafficking charges under the Tamil Nadu Prohibition Act on July 4, 2026. Police alleged he purchased state-issued liquor bottles at wholesale rates and resold them at higher prices, but the court found the prosecution failed to prove the charges beyond reasonable doubt. Critical evidentiary gaps—including lack of civilian witnesses at seizure, absence of chemical analysis of seized bottles, and missing documentation regarding the bottle handover to excise authorities—undermined the case, leading to the accused's acquittal under BNSS Section 271(1). This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
