This is an application to condone the delay of 203 days in filing Criminal Appeal No.974 of 2007 under Section 374 of Cr.P.C. It is stated by the applicant - accused no.4 that he was taken in custody as soon as the impugned order of conviction and sentence was passed on 6/2/2007 and he could not contact his relations. In addition he did not have sufficient means to take appropriate steps for filing appeal in time. . I am satisfied that the delay 2 caused deserves to be condoned and hence the application is allowed in terms of prayer clause (a). (B.H.MARLAPALLE,J.)
