Case Summary: 155/2026 - State of Gujarat v. Champaben Wo Kanubhai Sanabhai Chunara The court convicted the respondent under the Prohibition Act for possessing 4 liters of illicit alcohol and sentenced her to imprisonment with a fine of ₹200. However, the court reduced the sentence to simple imprisonment (instead of rigorous imprisonment) and imposed a fine of ₹200, considering that the respondent is from a poor, laboring class family and this was her first offense. The court exercised its discretion under sentencing principles to impose lenient punishment rather than the statutory maximum, prioritizing rehabilitation and social welfare considerations.
