    The court convicted the accused under the Gujarat Food and Institutions Act for selling adulterated namkeen (savory snacks) and sentenced him to a fine of ₹5,000 with 3 days simple imprisonment in default. Considering the accused's impoverished background, first-time offense, and family circumstances, the court imposed the minimum permissible sentence rather than the maximum, exercising judicial discretion to balance justice with rehabilitation.
