Revisionist was convicted by the trial Court for the offence under Sections 147,148, 323 and 326 of the Indian Penal Code and sentenced to undergo SI for 2 years for the offence under Section 326, IPC, 1 year SI for the offence under Sections 147 and 148, IPC and 6 months SI for the offence under Section 323, IPC. However, the appellate Court acquitted the revisionist under Sections 147 and 323, IPC a id upheld the sentence passed against the revisionist under Sections 148 and 326, IPC.

(2.) IT has been submitted by the revisionist's lawyer that the injury sustained by the petitioner is only on the ankle. So perhaps, there was chance of sustaining his injury somewhere else or in some other manner. However, his contention cannot be taken on its face value as both the Courts below have given a current finding that the injuries were caused by the petitioner while he dealt garasa blow on the informant. IT has further been submitted that the revisionist was assessed to be of 63 years of age on the date of the judgment of the trial Court dated 25-8-1994 and now he has advanced in his age and he is a retired Government employee.
