MAHESH CHAND SINGHLA Vs. STATE OF HARYANA

JUDGEMENT

(1.) The epitome of the facts & material, culminating in the commencement, relevant for the disposal of instant revision petition and emanating from the record, is that petitioner Mahesh Chand Singhla son of Kalumal Singhla (convict) came to the house of complainant Parmod Rana and promised him to enroll as a member of committee and received an amount of Rs.1,02,000/- from him. It was claimed that the petitioner neither enrolled the complainant as a member of any committee nor returned the money and thus has mis-appropriated the indicated amount.

(3.) Aggrieved by the impugned judgment of conviction & order of sentence, the appeal filed by the petitioner was ultimately dismissed as well, by the appellate Court, by virtue of impugned judgment dated 4.4.2012.
