THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.2055 of 2011 ORDER: This Criminal Revision Case is filed by the petitioner, aggrieved by judgment dated 05.09.2011, passed by the Principal Sessions Judge, Ranga Reddy District in Crl.A.No.25 of 2011, whereunder and whereby the order passed by the District Collector, Ranga Reddy District in Case No. A7/251/2011, dated 30.03.2011, was confirmed modifying the order of confiscation of 100% value of the 330.25 quintals of rice and 95 quintals of broken rice worth Rs. 6,06,888/- is modified and instead, 25% thereof is directed to be confiscated to the State, while releasing 75% in favour of the appellant. The learned counsel for the petitioner contended that the appellate court having observed that the order of the primary authority confiscating 100% of the value of the stocks seized is on higher side, has confiscated only 25%, which can also be said to be on higher side. On perusal of the judgment of the appellate court, it is clear that the appellate court has already taken a lenient view and granted some relief to the petitioner. However, having regard to the contentions made by the learned counsel for the petitioner and having regard to the fact that the seizure is of the year 2009, this Court is of the view that the 25% confiscation ordered by the appellate court can be reduced to 20%. Accordingly, the confiscation is reduced from 25% to 20%. With the above observations, the Criminal Revision Case is disposed of. _________________________ RAJA ELANGO, J 11.10.2011 CHV
