' This criminal appeal arises from the judgment of the learned Additional Special Judge Anti- Corruption, Lahore whereby he on 2-9-1979 convicted Kaneez Begum under sections 468/109 and 471, P.P.C. And sentenced her to imprisonment till rising of Court and a fine of Rs,2,000 in default thereof to further R.I. For six months.
2. The learned counsel has not challenged the conviction and rightly so because there is ample evidence on the record to prove crime committed by the appellant. Learned counsel has requested for leniency in sentence. The learned counsel while requesting for leniency in sentence submitted that after the conviction of the appellant, the parties had entered into compromise on the basis of which consent decree was passed by the learned Additional District Judge, Sialkot on 3-9-1981 whereby the property of Siraj Din the predecessor-in-interest was inherited by the parties according to Muslim Law. In the circumstances that the parties have entered into a compromise as stated by the learned counsel, I feel inclined to set aside the conviction of imprisonment till rising of the Court and reduce the sentence of fine Rs,2,000 on each count to Rs,1,000 on each count. The finding in the case shall not affect the civil rights of the parties in any manner. The appellant shall deposit Rs,2,000 with the trial Court within a month failing which the trial Court shall issue warrants for her arrest and detention. revisions by the competent authorities. Therefore, it is advisable to consult the official sources or legal professionals for the most up-to-date and accurate information.
