Mr.A.S.Shitole, APP for State. CORAM: B.H.MARLAPALLE,J. July 19, 2007. P.C. . Heard Ms.Mallika Ingale, the learned counsel for the applicant who has been convicted and sentenced for the offence punishable under Section 307 of IPC by the learned Ad-hoc Addl. Sessions Judge at Sewri, Mumbai on 4/8/2006 in Sessions Case No.126 of 2006. The said order of conviction and sentence has been challenged by filing an appeal, but beyond time and hence this application to condone the delay. . As per the office note the appeal has been filed beyond time by 270 days. 2 It has been stated by the applicant that after he was taken in custody and being a very poor person, the delay has been caused solely on account of financial constraints. . I have heard the learned APP and I am satisfied that the delay caused deserves to be condoned. Hence the affirmation is dispensed with and the application is allowed in terms of prayer clause (i).
