(Oral) This revision petition is filed by the revisionist- petitioners against the judgment dated 21.12.2010 passed by learned Sessions Judge, Sri Muktsar Sahib, as well as judgment dated 24.12.2009 passed by the learned Chief Judicial Magistrate, Muktsar, whereby petitioner is convicted under Section 14(1)(A) of the Employees Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952 and he was sentenced to undergo SI for a period of six months and fine CRR No.54 of 2011 of Rs.5000/- and in default of payment of fine to further undergo SI for a period of one month. On 10.01.2011, learned counsel for the petitioner has stated that he was not pressing the conviction and sentence awarded by the Courts below. He has further argued that since total period of sentence is six months and the petitioner is first time offender, hence, he may be released on probation under the Probation of Offenders Act, 1958. Considering totality of the facts and circumstances of the case, while maintaining the conviction of the petitioner, the present petition is disposed of with the direction that petitioner be released on probation under Section 4(1) of the Probation of Offenders Act, 1958, for a period of one year on furnishing his personal bond and undertaking with one surety to the satisfaction of the learned Trial Court that he will keep peace and be of good behaviour. In case he is found to be indulged in such like illegal activities, sentence awarded by the Courts below shall stand revived automatically. With above mentioned modification, this revision petition stands disposed of. January 20, 2011 ( Alok Singh ) vkd Judge 2
