Metropolitan Sessions Judge, Hyderabad. 2. The petitioner was prosecuted in C.C.No.626 of 2002 for the offence punishable under Section 304-A IPC. After due trial, the learned V Metropolitan Magistrate, Hyderabad, convicted the petitioner under Section 255 (2) Cr.P.C. and sentenced him to undergo rigorous imprisonment for one year and to pay a fine of Rs.2,000/- in default to suffer simple imprisonment for three months, vide judgment dated 10.03.2005. 3. As against the said conviction, the petitioner filed Criminal Appeal No.82 of 2005 on the file of the III Addl. Metropolitan Sessions Judge, Hyderabad, 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 petitioner by the learned Magistrate, vide judgment, dated 02.08.2005. Challenging the same, the petitioners preferred this revision. 4. Heard both sides. 5. After arguing for sometime, learned counsel for the petitioner 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 petitioner. 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 petitioner is a Government employee and he is the only bread winner of his family. Admittedly, the offence took place in the year 2002 and for all these years the petitioner suffered humiliation. In these circumstances, this Court is inclined to show some lenience towards the petitioner. 8. Accordingly, the conviction recorded against the petitioner-accused by the trial Court for the offence punishable under Section 304-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 petitioner. In addition to the fine imposed by the trial Court, the petitioner is directed to pay additional fine of Rs.3,000/- (Rupees Three thousand only) before the trial Court within a period of two (2) months, in default to suffer simple imprisonment for three months. 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.1256 OF 2005 DATE: 27.01.2011 Between : Totakoora Yadaiah … Petitioner/ Accused and State of A.P. ..Respondent HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.1256 of 2005 (Disposed of) 27th January, 2011 cbs
