HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.900 OF 2005 ORDER: This Criminal Revision Case under Sections 397 and 401 of Cr.P.C is filed by the petitioner-accused against the judgment, dated 14-6-2005, rendered in Criminal Appeal No.361 of 2003 by the II Addl. Metropolitan Sessions Judge, Hyderabad. This revision arises out of conviction by the trial Court and confirmed by the appellate Court for the offence punishable under Section 34 (a) of A.P. Excise Act. Learned counsel for the petitioner submits that in view of the G.O.Ms.No.496 of 2000, the said offences are now compoundable in nature. Hence, some leniency can be shown to the accused in imposition of sentence. This Court perused the record and the evidence adduced. Occurrence took place in the year 28-10-1993. After lapse of a decade, this Court is of the view that there is no necessity to send the petitioner to imprisonment. Hence, the sentence of imprisonment is modified to the period already undergone and fine amount already imposed on the petitioner is not interfered with. With the above observations, this Criminal Revision Case is disposed of. _______________________ Justice RAJA ELANGO Dated 16-12-2010 Dvs HONOURABLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.900 OF 2005 Dated 16-12-2010
