REV. No.1079 of 2010 (2) dt.02-08-2012 2 / 2 2 powers under Section 3 of The Probation of Offenders Act. However, on the basis of the materials available on the record, the accused opposite party nos. 2 to 7 have been found not guilty for charges under [STATUTE] and have been accordingly acquitted for said charges.
