    Court Judgment Summary The Judicial Magistrate Court in Attur acquitted Venkatesan of charges under Section 4(1)(C) of the Tamil Nadu Prohibition Act, finding that the prosecution failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubt. The court identified critical procedural failures: the seized liquor bottles were destroyed without proper documentation, no independent witnesses were examined, and required investigation protocols under TNP Act Section 32 were not followed. Applying the principle of benefit of doubt, the accused was discharged under Section 271(1) BNSS. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
