Order
26/03/2021 This revision petition has been filed against the impugned
judgment of conviction and order of sentence dated 30.5.2018
passed by Special Metropolitan Magistrate (NI Act Cases) No.12,
Jaipur Metropolitan in Criminal Case No.592/2017 whereby the
accused petitioner was convicted for the offence under Section
138 of the Negotiable Instruments Act (in short "N.I. Act") and
sentenced to undergo 6 months SI and fine of Rs.1,20,000/-; in
default of payment thereof, she would undergo additional 2
months SI.
On appeal, the learned Appellate Court vide order
dt.25.1.2019 confirmed the order passed by the trial court.
(2 of 2) [CRLR-649/2019]
Heard the learned counsel for the parties.
It is submitted that a compromise has been taken place
between the parties mentioning therein that the parties are going
to compromise the matter. It shows that the parties want to
compromise the matter before National Lok Adalat. It is further
stated that accused-Meera Saini is paying Rs.15,000/- to the
complainant and thereafter she will pay the outstanding amount
within two months. The compromise has been filed by both the
parties which is attested/verified by Registrar (Judicial) of this
court. The parties are not interested to proceed the matter further.
So, the revision petition may be allowed.
Hence, in view of the above, the revision petition deserves to
be decided in the light of compromise entered between the parties
as per Section 138 of N.I. Act.
The revision petition preferred by the petitioner is allowed.
The conviction of the petitioner as ordered by the trial court
dt.30.5.2018 and confirmed by the Appellate Court vide order
dt.25.1.2019 are quashed and set aside. The petitioner is
acquitted of the charges framed against her. Petitioner who is in
custody, be set at liberty forthwith, if not required in any other
case.
