The petitioner-accused was prosecuted in C.C.No.117 of 2001 for the offence punishable under Section 304-A IPC. After due trial, the learned V Addl. Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Chittoor, convicted the petitioner-accused under Section 255 (2) Cr.P.C. and accordingly sentenced him to undergo rigorous imprisonment for a period of six months and to pay a fine of Rs.1,000/- in default to suffer simple imprisonment for one month, vide judgment, dated 29.07.2002. 3. As against the said conviction, the petitioner filed Criminal Appeal No.194 of 2002 on the file of the Sessions Judge, Chittoor, and the learned Sessions Judge, having gone through both the oral and documentary evidence, upheld the conviction and sentence recorded against the petitioner by the learned Magistrate, vide judgment, dated 18.07.2005. Challenging the same, the petitioner preferred this revision. 4. Heard both sides. 5. After arguing for sometime, learned counsel for the petitioner by not pressing the main prayer confined his arguments to the extent of imposition of sentence and requested the Court to show some indulgence on the petitioner. 6. In view of the said submission and also the fact that the trial Court as well as the appellate Court have given concurrent findings, this Court is of the view that merits of the prosecution case and impugned judgment need not be adjudicated. 7. It is represented that the petitioner is the sole breadwinner of his family and has to look after the welfare of his family members. Admittedly, the offence took place in the year 2001 and for all these years the petitioner suffered humiliation. In these circumstances, this Court is inclined to show some lenience towards the petitioner. 8. Accordingly, the conviction recorded against the petitioner by the trial Court for the offence punishable under Section 304-A IPC, as confirmed by the appellate Court, is confirmed and the sentence of imprisonment is modified to that of the period already undergone by the petitioner-accused and the fine amount is not interfered with. 9. In all other respects, the impugned judgment shall stand confirmed. 10. With the above modification, the Criminal Revision Case is disposed of. _________________ RAJA ELANGO, J 13th December, 2010 cbs HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.1159 OF 2005 DATE: 13.12.2010 Between : R.
