Case Summary: State of Gujarat v. Geetaben Sureshbhai Bhikhabhai Vaghela (148/2026) The court convicted the respondent under Section 65(e) of the Prohibition Act for possessing 4 liters of country liquor valued at ₹800 found during a police check on 07/01/2026. Considering the respondent's impoverished circumstances, family dependency, and first-time offense, the court imposed a lenient sentence of rigorous imprisonment until the date of arrest plus a fine of ₹200, rather than the maximum statutory penalty, in accordance with principles of judicial discretion established in precedent cases. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
