JUDEGEMENT

Case 69/2026: State of Gujarat v. Ranjitbhai Melabhai Thakor Summary: The court convicted Ranjitbhai Melabhai Thakor under the Prohibition Act for possessing 4 liters of illicit liquor. Considering mitigating circumstances—that the accused is from a poor, laboring class family supporting dependents—the court imposed a reduced sentence of simple imprisonment and a fine of ₹200, rather than the maximum prescribed penalty, emphasizing that lighter punishment serves the interests of justice when compelling reasons exist. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
