RAM NARAIN Vs. STATE

JUDGEMENT

(1.) REVISION has been preferred by Ram Narain against the judg ment and order dated 19-4-84 passed by Sri S. K. Agnihotri, III Additional Sessions Judge, Bareilly in Criminal Appeal No. 25 of 1983. He was convicted for an offence under Section 16 (1) (c) of the Prevention of Food Adulteration Act and was sen tenced to a term of six months' rigorous imprisonment and to pay a fine of Rs. WOO/ -. In default of payment of fine, he was to suffer further rigorous imprison ment for fifteen days. Such judgment was passed by Sri S. K. Bhatt, the then Judicial Magistrate (Economic Offences), Bareilly on 17-1-1983. As the appeal filed by the accused failed he has preferred this revision against the judgment of the Ap pellate Court.

(2.) I have heard Sri P. N. Mishra, learned counsel for the revisionist and learned A. G. A. The learned counsel for the revisionist informs that the revisionist has actually died. However, this factum could not be ascertained through the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Bareilly who reported that he was not residing at his given ad dress. The factum of his death having not been established, I propose to decide the revision on merits.

(3.) THE office is directed to send a copy of this order to the Lower Court for need ful compliance under intimation to this Court within two months. Revision dismissed. .
