    Summary: The court granted bail to three applicants (Ravindra Sawant, Digvijay Rajaram Patil, and Prafful Himmatlal Padiya) arrested for possessing 5,184 fake liquor bottles. The court held that Section 123 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (administering poison) was misapplied since the applicants merely possessed the fake liquor and did not administer it to anyone. With completed investigation, no criminal antecedents, and stringent conditions imposed (Rs. 50,000 personal bond with sureties, monthly reporting to Excise Inspector), the applicants were released on bail.
