Petitioner suffered more, so the period of sentence can be minimized. There is lower limit of the punishment i.e. for one year. I am convinced to the extent that the petitioner was younger enough and found in possession of a fire arm and such a long period has elapsed, so the sentence awarded against him is minimized to one year after its modification. It is made clear that there is a single act that the petitioner was in possession of a fire arm, so separate sentence for both the offences are not justified. Conviction is affirmed. With the above modification in sentence this revision application is dismissed. ( Mandhata Singh, J.) Patna High Court,Patna Dated the 18th November,2009 A.H. /N.A.F.R.
