No. 3116 of 2010 2 This revision petition is filed by the revisionist – petitioners against the judgment dated 20.11.2010 passed by learned Sessions Judge, Sonepat, as well as judgment dated 21.12.2007 passed by the learned Judicial Magistrate First Class, Sonepat, whereby petitioners were convicted under Section 9(1) of Central Excise and Salt Act, 1944 and were awarded sentence of one year rigorous imprisonment and to pay a fine of Rs.2000/- and in default of payment of fine, to further undergo imprisonment for three months. At the outset, learned counsel for the petitioners does not challenge the conviction of the petitioners. He further states that since sentence awarded is one year, hence, petitioners are liable to be released on probation under the Probation of Offenders Act. Considering totality of the facts and circumstances of the case, while maintaining the conviction of the petitioners, the present petition is disposed of with the direction that petitioners be released on probation under Section 4(1) of the Probation of Offenders Act, 1958, for a period of one year on furnishing their personal bonds and undertaking with one surety to the satisfaction of the learned Trial Court that they will keep peace and be of good behaviour. In case they are found to be indulged in such like illegal activities, sentence awarded by the Court below shall stand revived automatically. However, the fine imposed by the Courts below shall remain intact. With above mentioned modification, this revision petition stands disposed of. ( Alok Singh ) Judge 24.02.2011 Crl Rev.
