' ASLAM RIAZ HUSSAIN, J.--After hearing the learned counsel for the petitioner as well as the learned counsel for the complainant and the learned Additional Advocate-General, who appeared to assist the Court in response to a notice issued to him, we convert this petition into appeal and proceed to dispose of it as such.
2. In this case Mst. Azra Parveen was tried and convicted under section 307, P.P.C. For throwing kerosine oil on Mst. Kalsoom Akhtar and setting her on fire, for which she was sentenced to 7 years'
R.I. And a fine of Rs,15,000.
3. Considering the circumstances in which the occurrence took place and the subsequent developments, brought to our notice by the learned counsel for the petitioner and admitted by the counsel for the complainant, we feel that the plea for reduction of sentence of imprisonment urged by the petitioner's counsel is justified specially in view of the fact that the fine of Rs,15,000 has already been paid by the appellant.
' Learned Additional Advocate-General has no objection.
4. We, therefore, allow the appeal partly inasmuch as we reduce the appellant's sentence of imprisonment under section 307, P.P.C. To that already undergone by her. The sentence of fine (which has already been paid), is, however, maintained. 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.
