THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL REVISION CASE NO. 429 OF 2005 ORDER: This revision is filed aggrieved by the judgment dated 10.2.2005 in Criminal Appeal No. 57 of 2004 on the file of the II Additional Sessions Judge (Fast Track Court) Parvathipuram, Vizianagaram district confirming the judgment dated 10.3.2004 in C.C. No. 1241 of 2000 on the file of the Additional Judicial Magistrate of First Class, Parvathipuram, Vizianagaram. A case in Crime No. 41 of 2000 was registered against the petitioner under Section 420 of Indian Penal Code alleging that the matriculation certificate submitted by the petitioner at the time of selection for the post of Stypendry Trainee Cadet Police Constable, on verification was found to be ‘not genuine’. Upon investigation a charge sheet was filed in C.C. No. 1241 of 2000. On consideration of the evidence available on record, the petitioner was found guilty and convicted and sentenced to undergo simple imprisonment for a period of five months and shall pay a fine of Rs.500/- and in default to suffer simple imprisonment for one month. The petitioner herein carried the matter in appeal in Criminal Appeal No. 57 of 2004 on the file of the II Additional Sessions Judge (Fast Track Court), Parvathipuram. On reappreciation of the evidence, the appeal was dismissed and the conviction and sentence imposed by the trial Court was confirmed. As against the said order, the present Criminal Revision Case is filed. On the earlier occasion there was no representation made on behalf of the petitioner, as such today this matter is posted under the caption ‘for dismissal’. Heard the learned counsel for petitioner and learned Public Prosecutor. This Court perused the entire record and also the evidence available on record. It is a case of concurrent findings recorded by both the trial Court as well the lower Appellate Court. A perusal of the judgment under revision does not need any interference since the same is not suffered with any perversity or infirmity warranting interference of this Court. However, by taking into consideration the pendency of the matter for a long time and also the age of the petitioner at the time of committing the offence, this Court is inclined to show some leniency. Accordingly, the conviction is not interfered but the sentence is modified and reduced to the period already undergone. The remaining portion of the judgment under revision including the fine imposed by the trial Court, remains unchanged. With the above modification, the criminal revision petition is disposed of. _____________ RAJA ELANGO,J DATE: 23.12.2010 TVK THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL REVISION CASE NO. 429 OF 2005 Date: 23.12.2010
