The State of Maharashtra .. Respondent Mrs. Nasreen S.K. Ayubi, Advocate appointed for petitioner. Dr. F.R. Shaikh, APP for State. CORAM: B. H. MARLAPALLE & U.D.SALVI, JJ. August 04, 2011. P.C. 1. Heard the learned appointed Advocate. 2. The petitioner is aggrieved by the order dated 2/7/2010 passed for remissions under Section 432 of Cr.P.C. by the State Government. As per the said order, the petitioner has been placed in category 3(b) of the guide-lines dated 11/5/1992. The petitioner’s limited grievance is that his case must be considered as per the 15th March, 2010 guide-lines. 2 cri-wp-1670-11.doc 3. We have noted that the order of conviction and sentence against the petitioner was passed on 27/3/2000 in Sessions Case No. 733 of 1996 and, therefore, his case will be covered by the guide-lines prevailing or in force as on that date and undoubtedly the guide-lines of 11/5/1992 were applicable. 4. We are, therefore, satisfied that the petitioner’s case for remissions has been rightly considered under 11/5/1992 guide-lines and the recent guide-lines framed on 15/3/2010 cannot be made applicable to the petitioner. 5. The petition must, therefore, fail and the same is hereby dismissed. (U.D.SALVI, J.) (B. H. MARLAPALLE, J.)
