ORDER

The Gujarat High Court reduced the sentence of the accused convicted under the Gujarat Prohibition Act, Section 65AA, from three months imprisonment to a fine of Rs. 200, considering the extenuating circumstances (poor economic status, first-time offender, family responsibilities) that were not adequately considered by the lower court. The court held that courts have discretion to impose lenient sentences when mitigating factors are genuinely present and substantiated, in the interest of justice. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
