IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB & HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Criminal Revision No. 1931 of 2011 (O&M) Date of decision: August 26, 2011 Bittu Nath .. Petitioner Vs. State of Punjab .. Respondent Coram: Hon'ble Mr. Justice A.N. Jindal Present: Mr. Kuldeep Singh Saini, Advocate for the petitioner. Ms. Bhavna Gupta, DAG, Punjab for the respondent. A.N. Jindal, J Notice of motion. On the asking of the Court, Ms. Bhavna Gupta, DAG, Punjab, who is present in the court, accepts notice on behalf of the respondent- State. At the very outset, learned counsel for the petitioner, without assailing the findings of conviction has prayed for taking a lenient view on the quantum of sentence. Having examined the impugned judgment, the evidence appears to have been appreciated in the right perspective. Both the courts below have returned concurrent findings of fact that the accused was guilty of the offences under Sections 380, 454 IPC for stealing the utensils from Dharmshala. No illegality much less irregularity or perversity has been detected or pointed out warranting interference by this court. As such, no exception to the opinion expressed by the courts below could be made at this revisional stage. Now coming to the quantum of sentence, keeping in view the facts and peculiar circumstances of the case, I am of the considered opinion that ends of justice would be met if some leniency is extended to him. Resultantly, this revision petition is dismissed with the modification in the sentence which is reduced to six months without any alteration in the sentence of fine. August 26, 2011 (A.N.
