This Appeal is directed against conviction of the Appellant for the offence punishable under Sections 417 and 506 (Part II) of the Indian Penal Code, & sentence of R.I. for one year and fine of Rs.5000/- on each of the two counts. 2. Appeal arises out of the following facts. 2 Cri Appeal No.104-99 The Appellant had enticed one Ramila and maintained relations with her which led to birth of a child. The Appellant had promised Ramila to get married but did not. Therefore, the Appellant was prosecuted and convicted after the trial. Now, Ramila and the Appellant both have come together. They are already married. Apart from the son, who was born before the marriage & before the Appellant was tried, they also have another daughter. The prosecutrix has filed an Affidavit stating that she seeks to have the matter compounded. She is duly identified by Advocate Ashish Sawant. Since the offence punishable under Sections 417 & 506(Part II) are compoundable, the offences are compounded and conviction of the Appellant for those two offences punishable under Sections 417 & 506(Part II) is set aside. Fine, if any, paid shall be refunded to the Appellant (R.C.CHAVAN, J.) 3 Cri Appeal No.104-99
