Government of Gujarat vs THAKOR VASANTJI BABAJI — 247/2026

The court found the accused guilty under BNS Section 275 (committing an offense relating to provisions of poison/dangerous substances) after the accused voluntarily confessed to the charge. Considering the accused's clean criminal record, economic circumstances, and voluntary plea, the court imposed a lenient sentence below the statutory minimum: a fine of ₹100 or, in default, two days simple imprisonment. The court applied the principle established in Natwar Harchandra v. State to reduce the sentence below the minimum prescribed by law.
