THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.740 of 2004 O R D E R: This Criminal Revision Case is filed against the judgment in Criminal Appeal No.134 of 2000, dated 07.04.2004 on the file of the III Additional District and Sessions Judge, (Fast Track Court) Mahabubnagar at Gadwal, whereunder the learned Sessions Judge dismissed the appeal confirming the judgment 26.07.2000 passed in C.C.No.32 of 1997 on the file of the Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Gadwal, whereunder the petitioner herein-accused was convicted and sentenced to undergo simple imprisonment for three months and to pay a fine of Rs.500 /-, in default of payment of fine to suffer simple imprisonment for one month for the offence punishable under Section 352 IPC. After arguing for some time, the learned counsel for the petitioner confined his argument only in connection with the sentence imposed by the courts below and prayed to take a lenient view against the accused. Admittedly, the alleged offence took place in the year 1997. The allegation is that he prevented the Police Constable from serving summons. Taking into consideration that the offence pertains to the year 1997 and the petitioner is now aged about 50 years and he being the only bread- winner of the family and has to look after the entire family, this Court is of the considered opinion that a lenient view can be taken against petitioner. Accordingly, the sentence of imprisonment is hereby set aside and the fine of Rs.500/- imposed by the appellate Court is not interfered with. With the above modification, the Criminal Revision Case is disposed of. __________________ RAJA ELANGO, J 22ND June, 2010. PNV
