    Order

    Summary The Jhalod Court convicted the accused, Kaluubhai, under the Gujarat Prohibition Act for illegally possessing alcohol without a permit. The accused pleaded guilty to the charges, and the court, considering his poor economic circumstances, family responsibilities, and this being his first offense, imposed a lenient sentence of Rs. 200 fine and 5 days simple imprisonment instead of the minimum statutory punishment, exercising discretionary powers under established judicial precedent.
