RANDHIR SINGH Vs. SATBIR

JUDGEMENT

(1.) CONTEMNER no. 2 -Randhir Singh, who was a Power of Attorney holder of Ram Singh owner of the suit land in a suit for specific performance, is in revision under Article 227 of the Constitution praying for setting aside of order dated 3.3.2012 (P -1) passed by the Trial Court ordering civil imprisonment for one month in proceedings under Order 39 Rule 2 -A CPC; further challenge is to the appellate order dated 28.2.2014 (P -2) passed by the learned Additional District Judge, Gurgaon affirming the order (P -1). Learned counsel has only tendered his unqualified apology and plea for mercy.

(2.) HAVING heard learned counsel for the petitioner, this Court is not inclined to exercise any discretion in favour of the petitioner/contemner.

(3.) IT is to be acknowledged that this kind of blatant violation of the Court orders is not to be appreciated but dealt with a very strong hand. Accordingly, finding no ground to invoke the revisional jurisdiction of this Court the present revision petition is dismissed. The petitioner is directed to surrender before the learned Trial Court within two weeks from today to undergo the sentence.
