The appellant, who was convicted for an offence under Section

Rs.2,000/- (Rupees Two Thousand only) and in default, to undergo six

months rigorous imprisonment, has filed this Criminal Appeal as against the

judgment of the Additional District and Sessions Judge, Fast Track Court,

Pudhukottai, made in S.C.No.89 of 2005, dated 31.01.2006.

2. The learned counsel appearing for the appellant / accused

No.1 submitted that the appellant underwent sentence for nearly 17 years

and she was granted the premature release by virtue of G.O.Ms.No.618,

Home (Pri-IV) Department, dated 24.09.2022.

with this Criminal Appeal on merits, at this length of time. The learned

counsel submitted that if the appellant indulges in crime after her release,

premature release granted to her will stand cancelled. We hope that the

we do not want to waste our time in hearing this Criminal Appeal at this

length of time.

of in the above terms.
