with fine of Rs. 1,00,000/- (Rupees One Lakh only) and in default of payment of

further submits that it is the case to be admitted as it is genuinely believed that the

the learned trial Court which need to be set aside acquitting the appellant.
Heard the argument advanced on behalf of the appellant and prima
facie this Court is convinced and the present appeal is hereby admitted.
