THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA CRIMINAL REVISION CASE Nos.631, 632 AND 633 OF 2010 COMMON ORDER: These three revision cases are filed by the same petitioner, as such, they are being disposed of together. 2. Petitioner was tried in three Sessions Cases i.e., S.C. Nos.526, 527 and 525 of 2006, for the offence punishable under Sections 395 read with 397 and 398 IPC by the Assistant Sessions Judge, Nirmal. After due trial, the learned Assistant Sessions Judge came to the conclusion that the petitioner is guilty of the said offence and, accordingly, convicted and sentenced him to undergo rigorous imprisonment for a period of seven (7) years and to pay a fine of Rs.200/-, in default, to suffer simple imprisonment for a period of one month in each case. The trial Judge, who decided the cases simultaneously, observed that the said sentences in all the three cases shall run concurrently. The said judgments were challenged by filing Criminal Appeal Nos.46, 47 and 45 of 2008 and the same were dismissed by the lower appellate Court by its judgments dated 14-05- 2009. Aggrieved thereby, the present revisions have been filed. 3. Heard. 4. While admitting the revision cases, this Court directed the counsel for petitioner to find out as to from what date the petitioner is in jail. The learned counsel for petitioner produced a letter bearing No.CPW/Jc4/4739/2010, dated 14-04-2010, purported to have been issued by the Superintendent, Central Prison, Warangal, stating that the petitioner herein is undergoing the above sentence in that prison as C.T. No.2676 and he was admitted into the prison on 09-01-2008. 5. From the above, it is clear that the petitioner is in Jail for the last 2 years and 9 months. Further, the learned counsel for petitioner stated that as an under trial prisoner, the petitioner was in jail for a period of 17 months. No proof is filed before this Court establishing the said fact. Even if the said period is taken into consideration, the total period of imprisonment works out to 4 years 2 months only. As there is no proof that the petitioner is in jail for the last more than four years, this Court is not inclined to reduce the period of sentence to the one already undergone by him, by taking into consideration the remand period of 17 months as an under trial prisoner as stated by the learned counsel for petitioner. However, the sentence of seven years as imposed by the trial Court is reduced to five years in all the three revision cases. Except the modification in the period of sentence, in all other aspects, the revisions are dismissed. 6. Accordingly, all the three Criminal Revision Cases are dismissed to the extent indicated above. ________________________ GOPALA KRISHNA TAMADA, J October 07, 2010. KTL
