The facts leading to the filing of this criminal revision are that Shaukat Ali petitioner was tried by Magistrate 1st Class, Faisalabad, for an offence under section 411, P.P.C. He was convicted and sentenced to one year's R.I. With a fine of Rs.500 or in default, three months' R.I. Vide judgment, dated 24-6-1984. His appeal was dismissed by Additional Sessions Judge, Faisalabad vide judgment dated 12-11-1984.
2. Learned counsel for the petitioner, at the very outset, submitted that the petitioner has already undergone four months of imprisonment out of total period of one year. Contends that he would not challenge the judgments of both the Courts below but would only pray for the reduction in sentence. Learned counsel for the State has no objection.
3. I have heard the learned counsel and gone through the evidence. The occurrence took place in the year 1982 and ever since then the petitioner is facing the hardships of trial. The petitioner has undergone four months sentence, which I feel, in the circumstances of the case, is sufficient.
Therefore, while dismissing the revision, I reduce the sentence of imprisonment to the period already undergone by him. The sentence of fine is, however, maintained. The petition is dismissed.
