Vijay Kumar …Petitioner Versus State of Haryana …Respondent CORAM: HON’BLE MR. JUSTICE KANWALJIT SINGH AHLUWALIA Present: Mr. P.C.Chaudhary, Advocate for the petitioner. Mr.Dinesh Arora, Assistant Advocate General, Haryana, for the State. Kanwaljit Singh Ahluwalia, J. Vijay Kumar son of Amar Singh alias Hukam Singh Bawaria, along with his brother Nihal Singh and Balbir Singh son of Gurdayal were convicted and sentenced under Section 411 IPC to undergo rigorous imprisonment for two years and a fine of Rs.200/- each, in default whereof to further undergo rigorous imprisonment for three months, by the Court of learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Jind. Aggrieved against the same, they filed three appeals, which were decided by the Court of learned Additional Sessions Judge, Jind, who dismissed the appeal of petitioner and the appeals filed by his co- accused were accepted. Criminal Revision No. 36 of 1993 2 Mr. P.C.Chaudhary, Advocate, appearing for the petitioner has stated that he does not intend to contest the case on merits and will accept the conviction awarded to the petitioner by the Courts below. He has stated that petitioner who was awarded two years sentence had no resources to file the present revision petition, therefore, revision petition was filed after delay of about six months and application for condonation of delay was listed on 21.1.1993 before this Court. It has been further stated that delay was condoned by this Court on 1.6.1993 and on 3.6.1993 petitioner was ordered to be released on bail. It has been stated before me that petitioner has undergone one year and two months of his actual sentence of two years. It has been stated by Mr. Chaudhary that in the present case occurrence pertains to 1.7.1986. Therefore, the petitioner has suffered protracted trial. Taking into account that the occurrence is 22 years old and the petitioner has undergone one year and two months of his actual sentence, it is ordered that his sentence of two years is reduced to one year and two months. However, sentence of fine of Rs.200/- has already been paid. Therefore, in case the petitioner has undergone one year and two months, as stated by his learned counsel, his sentence will be treated as already undergone. With these observations, the present revision petition is disposed off. (Kanwaljit Singh Ahluwalia) Judge February 26, 2008 “DK”
