Final Orders / Judgements
Summary The Gujarat High Court modified the sentence imposed on the accused under the Gujarat Prohibition Act Section 65AA, reducing it in the interest of justice. The court held that the trial judge failed to consider relevant extenuating circumstances (the accused's first offense, poor economic background, and commitment not to reoffend), and relying on precedent, modified the sentence to a fine of ₹250 instead of imprisonment, while maintaining the vehicle forfeiture order. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
