Without assailing the judgment of conviction learned counsel for the petitioner has urged that the petitioner has already undergone about one month of the substantive sentence and prays for taking a lenient view in the matter. Keeping in view the fact that the petitioner has already paid the cheque amount and a compromise has taken place between the parties, a lenient view is taken.
