THE HON’BLE SRI JUSTICE RAJA ELANGO CRIMINAL REVISION CASE No.948 of 2004 O R D E R: This Criminal Revision Case is filed against the judgment in Criminal Appeal No.31 of 2001, dated 28.05.2004 on the file of the II Additional Sessions Judge, Nellore, whereunder the learned Sessions Judge dismissed the appeal confirming the judgment dated 24.02.2001 passed in C.C.No.40 of 2000 by the learned Special Judicial Magistrate of First Class for Railways, Nellore, whereunder the petitioner herein- accused was convicted and sentenced to undergo rigorous imprisonment for four months and to pay a fine of Rs.2,000/-, in default of payment of fine to suffer simple imprisonment for one month for the offence punishable under Section 304(A) IPC. Heard the learned Counsel for the petitioners and the learned Public Prosecutor for the respondent-State. The learned counsel for the petitioner, after arguing for some time, confined his argument only in connection with the sentence imposed by the courts below. The learned counsel for the petitioner submitted that the offence took place in the year 1999 and that ever since the date of offence, the petitioner is under humiliation. Learned counsel further submitted that the petitioner is the only bread-winner in his family and he has to look after his two children and, hence, he prayed to take a lenient view in imposing the sentence. Considering the above submissions, the sentence of imprisonment imposed by the Courts below for the offence punishable under Section 304-A IPC is set aside. However, the petitioner is directed to pay a fine amount of Rs.5,000/- (Rupees five thousand only), apart from the fine amount already paid by him before the trial Court. He shall pay the fine amount now imposed within a period of four weeks from the date of the copy of the order made ready. However, the remaining portion of the impugned judgment shall stand unaltered. With the above modifications, the Criminal Revision Case is disposed of. __________________ RAJA ELANGO, J 5th July, 2010. PNV
