HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.748 OF 2005 JUDGMENT: This Criminal Revision Case is preferred by the petitioners- accused Nos.1 and 3 against the judgment, dated 27.04.2005, rendered in Criminal Appeal No.164 of 2004 by the IV Addl. Sessions Judge (Fast Track Court) at Siddipet. 2. The petitioners herein along with A.2 and A.4 were prosecuted in C.C.No.550 of 2003 for the offence punishable under Section 498-A IPC. After due trial, the learned Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Siddipet, convicted the petitioners-A.1 and A.3 under Section 248 (2) Cr.P.C. and sentenced them to undergo rigorous imprisonment for one year each and to pay a fine of Rs.500/- in default to suffer simple imprisonment for three months each while acquitting the other accused of the said offence, vide judgment dated 09.12.2004. 3. As against the said conviction, the petitioners filed Criminal Appeal No.164 of 2004 on the file of the IV Addl. Sessions Judge (Fast Track Court) at Siddipet, and the learned Sessions Judge, after re-appreciation of both the oral and documentary evidence, dismissed the Criminal Appeal while confirming the conviction and sentence recorded against the petitioners by the learned Magistrate, vide judgment, dated 27.04.2005. Challenging the same, the petitioners preferred this revision. 4. Heard both sides. 5. After arguing for sometime, learned counsel for the petitioners by not pressing the main prayer confined his arguments to the extent of imposition of sentence and requested the Court to show some indulgence on the petitioners. 6. In view of the said submission and also the fact that the trial Court as well as the appellate Court have given concurrent findings, this Court is of the view that the merits and demerits of the prosecution case and the impugned judgment need not be adjudicated. 7. It is represented that the 1st petitioner has to look after his parents and the 2nd petitioner is aged about 60 years. Admittedly, the offence took place in the year 2003 and for all these years the petitioners suffered humiliation. In these circumstances, this Court is inclined to show some lenience towards the petitioners. 8. Accordingly, the conviction recorded against the petitioners-accused Nos.1 and 3 by the trial Court for the offence punishable under Section 498-A IPC as confirmed by the appellate Court is confirmed and the sentence of imprisonment is modified to that of the period already undergone by the petitioners. In addition to the fine imposed by the trial Court, the petitioners are directed to pay additional fine of Rs.2,500/- (Rupees Two thousand five hundred only) each before the trial Court within a period of eight (8) weeks, in default to suffer simple imprisonment for four months each. 9. In all other respects, the impugned judgment shall stand confirmed. 10. With the above modification, the Criminal Revision Case is disposed of. _________________ RAJA ELANGO, J 27th January, 2011 cbs HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.748 OF 2005 DATE: 27.01.2011 Between : Jukanti Mallareddy and another … Petitioners/ Accused 1 & 3 and State of A.P. ..Respondent HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.748 of 2005 (Disposed of) 27th January, 2011 cbs
