Heard. After arguing for sometime, learned counsel for the petitioners by not pressing the main prayer confined his arguments only to the extent of imposition of sentence and requested the Court to show some indulgence on the petitioners. This is a case where both the courts below gave concurrent findings and convicted the petitioners. Hence, this Court is not inclined to interfere with the conviction. Accordingly, the conviction and sentence imposed by the trial Court and as confirmed by the Appellate Court as far as A-1 and A-3 are concerned, is hereby confirmed. However, as far as the second petitioner (A-2) is concerned, the conviction is confirmed. In any event, taking into consideration the fact that the matter is pending from the year 2000, the sentence of imprisonment imposed by the trial Court and confirmed by the appellate court is reduced to that of the period already undergone by him in prison. Further, he is directed to pay a sum of Rs.4,500/- as fine apart from the fine already paid before the lower Court, within a period of eight weeks from the date of receipt of a copy of this order, in default, to undergo simple imprisonment for a period of one month. With the above modifications, the Criminal Revision Case is disposed of. ___________________ JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO Date:21.01.2011 Rns
