Order
29/08/2023
1. The instant revision petition has been filed by petitioner against
the judgment dated 05.09.2018 passed by the learned Judicial
Magistrate, Pilibanga in Criminal Case No.38/08 and the appeal vide
judgment dated 10.05.2023 passed by the Additional Sessions Judge
No.2, Hanumangarh.
2. By way of filing the instant criminal revision petition, challenge is
made to the order dated 17.08.2023, whereby the application filed by
the petitioner seeking extension of time for depositing of the fine
amount and execution of bond of probation has been rejected.
3. Heard learned counsel for the parties and gone through the orders
impugned.
4. It is revealed that after conviction, the petitioner preferred an
appeal before the learned Additional Sessions Judge No.2,
Hanumangarh, wherein though the judgment of conviction had been
affirmed but taking a lenient view, the benefit of probation was directed
(2 of 2) [CRLR-1113/2023]
to be extended to him. He would directed to furnish bonds of probation
under Section 4 of the Probation of the Offenders Act as well as directed
to deposit Rs.5,000/- towards cost of proceedings under Section 5 of
the Probation of the Offenders Act. As per the judgment dated
10.05.2023, the needful was required to be done within fifteen days but
the petitioner failed to do so. Whereafter an application was moved for
extension of the period so awarded to him on the ground that his
mother was ailing with serious disease. Upon his failure in compliance of
the order dated 10.05.2023, he was taken into custody and sent to jail
to serve the part of sentence.
5. After going through the niceties of the matter, the fact that the
petitioner had gone to take care of his ill mother, I deem it appropriate
to take a lenient view.
6. Accordingly, the revision petition is allowed. The petitioner is
ordered to be released upon furnishing bond of probation under Section
4 of the Probation of the Offenders Act and to deposit Rs.5,000/- under
Section 5 of the Probation of the Offenders Act as directed by the
appellate court vide order dated 10.05.2023 within next fifteen days.
Upon furnishing of the bonds and deposit of amount, he shall be
released from prison forthwith (if not wanted in any other case).
7. Record of the courts below be sent back.
8. The revision petition as well as all pending applications, if any,
shall stand disposed of accordingly. A copy of this order be sent to the
trial court for compliance.
