DEEPAK GUPTA, J.
Petitioner is the complainant of case FIR No.318 dated 14.09.2010
registered at Police Station Butana under Sections 323, 324, 506 read with Section
34 of the IPC.
Vide judgment dated 06.05.2014 passed by Learned Judicial Magistrate
First Class, Karnal respondent Nos.2 & 3 have been convicted under Sections 323
& 324 read with Section 34 of the IPC. Vide separate order dated 07.05.2014, the
two respondents were sentenced to varying imprisonments.
Against the above-said judgment of conviction and order of sentence
respondent Nos.2 & 3 filed appeal before Learned Sessions Judge, Karnal. Though
the judgment against conviction was maintained but the two respondents were
directed to be released on probation. Simultaneously, both of them were also
directed to pay compensation of `24,000/- to be shared by them equally, vide order
1 of 2
CRR-3134-2018 (O&M) -2-
dated 22.05.2018.
It is against the above-said order dated 22.05.2018 of Learned Sessions
Judge, Karnal that this is revision is filed, challenging the probation granted to the
respondents.
It is contended by learned counsel that four injuries were caused to the
petitioner and so probation has been wrongly granted.
Perusal of the judgment passed by the Trial Court reveals that four
injuries were sustained by the petitioner out of which one was incised wound on the
right front region, which was simple in nature. Rest of the injuries were in the form
of abrasion or bruise. Occurrence had taken place way back on 13.09.2010 i.e. more
than 12 years back. Having regard to the aforesaid factual position, this Court
considers that no illegality or irregularity has been committed by Learned
Additional Sessions Judge in releasing the respondents on probation, particularly
when they have been asked to pay compensation to the victim-petitioner.
As such, present petition is hereby dismissed.
