ORDER

The court convicted Sharadbhai Kalubhai Vasiya under Section 54(1) of the Prohibition Act, but reduced the sentence to a fine of ₹100 instead of the minimum prescribed punishment. The court exercised discretionary leniency considering the accused's impoverished background, sole responsibility for family support, first-time offender status, and potential hardship to dependents if imprisoned, finding special and adequate reasons to impose the lesser sentence. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
