BY ADV. SRI.R.SATISH KUMAR RESPONDENTS: RESPONDENT/COMPLAINANT ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- STATE OF KERALA, REPRESENTED BY THE PUBLIC PROSECUTOR, HIGH COURT OF KERALA, ERNAKULAM. BY PUBLIC PROSECUTOR SRI.M.S.BREEZ THIS CRIMINAL REVISION PETITION HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 05/02/2008 , THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY PASSED THE FOLLOWING: V. RAMKUMAR, J. = = = = = = = = = = = = = Crl.R.P.No. 279 of 2008 = = = = = = = = = = = = = = Dated this the 5th day of February, 2008 ORDER The petitioner was given interim custody of the lorry as well as 3000 litres of kerosine on his undertaking to forfeit to the Government a sum of Rs.75,000/-(Rupees seventy five thousand only) in the event of default to produce the lorry or the kerosine. But the petitioner subsequently produced the lorry alone when called upon to do so. Thereupon the learned Magistrate imposed the penalty of half of the bond amount namely Rs.37,500/- on the petitioner. Aggrieved by the said order he preferred an appeal before the Sessions Court as Crl.Appeal No.10 of 2007. The said appeal has been dismissed. It is the said appellate judgment which is assailed in this Crl.R.P. Apart from the fact I find no illegality in the impugned orders, if at all there is any impropriety in the orders that was in not enforcing the entire bond amount. I see no ground to interfere with the impugned orders. This Cr.R.P is accordingly dismissed. V. RAMKUMAR, JUDGE sj
