Case History
Case Summary: Crl.A. No. 001486/2005 - Unni @ Unnikrishnan v. State of Kerala The Supreme Court dismissed the appeal on October 21, 2010. The appellants were convicted in 1996 for unlawful possession of 32 kgs of ration sugar intended for black market sale under the Essential Commodities Act, 1955 and Kerala Rationing Order, 1966. While rejecting the appellants' contentions regarding the seizure and their culpability, the Court reduced their sentence from one year to three months rigorous imprisonment (the statutory minimum) plus Rs. 2,000 fine, considering they had already served approximately 3 months 11 days in custody. The appeal was dismissed with these observations. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
