    The court convicted Menaben Kiranbhai Chunara under IPC Section 65 of the Prohibition Act for illegally possessing 4 liters of country-made liquor valued at ₹800. Considering the accused's poor economic status, family dependence, and that this was a first offense, the court imposed a lenient sentence of imprisonment until trial completion plus a fine of ₹200 (or 5 days additional imprisonment if unpaid), rather than applying the maximum statutory penalty. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
