1 IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CRIMINAL APPELLATE JURISDICTION CRIMINAL APPLICATION NO. 2797 OF 2009 Mohammad Aslam Ahmed Hussain Khan ... Applicant Vs. The State of Maharashtra ... Respondent Mr. Abhay Kumar Apte, Appointed Advocate, for the applicant. Ms. M.H.Mhatre, APP, for the respondent - State. CORAM: J.H.BHATIA, J. DATE : 21st June, 2010. P.C. 1. Heard the learned Counsel for the applicant and the learned APP. 2. The applicant was convicted and sentenced to imprisonment for different offences in Sessions Case No.712/1991, Sessions Case No.676/1991 and Sessions Case No.432/2006. The learned APP has shown copies of the judgments in two cases and copy of the operative order in one case. All the three offences had taken place at different times, at different places and against different persons. The trial had also taken place in each matter separately before different learned Judges. It is well-settled position of law that the sentences awarded in a single trial about more than one offence which were committed in a single transaction 2 could be directed to run concurrently, but when there is conviction in different offences and sentences were separately awarded, such sentences cannot be made to run concurrently. 3. Therefore, the application stands rejected. 4. The applicant be informed accordingly. The jail authorities shall also inform the applicant about his right to prefer appeal against conviction in each of the cases, if he has not preferred appeals so far. (J.H.BHATIA,J.)
